Study Notes

PHP Programming Fundamentals

  • Variable names in PHP are case sensitive, and spaces are not allowed. Multi-word variable names should be separated with underscores.
  • Variable variables in PHP allow indirect access to the contents of a variable without knowing its name directly.
  • Type casting in PHP is the process of converting a variable or value into a desired data type, useful for arithmetic computations.
  • Constants in PHP are identifiers for unchangeable values and are automatically global across the entire application.
  • PHP has various types of operators, including arithmetic, assignment, logical, and comparison operators, each with specific functions and examples.
  • The switch-case statement in PHP is used to perform different actions based on different conditions.
  • PHP supports different types of loops, including while, do-while, and for loops, each with its own syntax and usage examples.
  • Breaking a loop in PHP is achieved using the "break" statement, allowing for early exit from a loop based on a specific condition.
  • The "continue" statement in PHP is used to skip the rest of the current loop iteration and continue execution at the next iteration.
  • Arrays in PHP can store one or more values in a single variable name and come in three different kinds: numeric, associative, and multidimensional arrays.
  • Error management in PHP involves understanding and handling both external errors and logic errors, with four levels of error conditions: strict standard problems, notices, warnings, and errors.
  • PHP includes the ability to require or include files using the "require," "include," "require_once," and "include_once" functions, each with its own behavior and implications.
