Study Notes

Conditional Statements

Conditional statements are used to perform different actions based on different decisions.
The if...else statement is used to execute a set of code when a condition is true and another set of code when the condition is false.
The elseif statement is used with the if...else statement to execute a set of code if one of several conditions is true.

The if...else Statement

The if...else statement is used to execute some code if a condition is true and another code if a condition is false.
If more than one line should be executed if a condition is true/false, the lines should be enclosed within curly braces.

The elseif Statement

The elseif statement is used to execute some code if one of several conditions are true.

The Switch Statement

The switch statement is used to select one of many blocks of code to be executed.
The switch statement is used to avoid long blocks of if..elseif..else code.

Looping

Looping statements are used to perform the same block of code to run a number of times.
PHP has four types of looping statements: while, do...while, for, and foreach.

The while Statement

The while statement will execute a block of code if and as long as a condition is true.
The while statement will continue to run as long as the specified condition is true.

The do...while Statement

The do...while statement will execute a block of code at least once, and then repeat the loop as long as a condition is true.
The do...while statement will continue to increment the variable as long as it has a value of less than or equal to a specified value.

The for Statement

The for statement is the most advanced of the loops in PHP.
The for statement is used when you know how many times you want to execute a statement or a list of statements.
The for statement has three parameters: initialization, condition, and increment.

The foreach Statement

The foreach statement is used to loop through an array.
For every loop, the value of the current array element is assigned to $value (and the array pointer is moved by one).
