Tutorial: Starting with PHP

[Hanoko]

This is the firs tutorial i have ever done but i think people would like to learn a language that is used a lot to make web pages.

First you have to know is that PHP is server based language. This means that it runs towards the server, the user computer doesn't matter at all, the important thing is the server where the script is running from.

If you want to write code in PHP you will have to write it between this:

Code: [Select]

<?php

?>
It is also accepted:

Code: [Select]

<?

?>
That tells the server that the code between that is writed in PHP.

To write the typical "Hello World" the script should look like this:

Code: [Select]

<?php

//This two bars are to write comment in your code, you should explain what the code is for if somebody is going to read you code
/*You can comment like this too */

echo "Hello World";

?>
I'm going to explain this code. The "echo" what does is print a string that must be between "" (double) or ''(simple), PHP accept both.

THIS IS IMPORTANT:
YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO FINISH EACH LINE OF YOUR CODE WITH ";" .
If you dont do this the script won't work.


Well, I think this should do for the first tutotial. I hope you like it. I will make more tutorials if you want just ask for them.
And no doubt to click the +1.

Thank you for your attention.

nice tut, I was thinking about learning PHP

This is a nice guide but you should look into formatting with bbc. It makes tutorials much nicer. +1 for the content though!

[FCKSHTUP]

maybe make it go in depth more, maybe variables or something, if there are in PHP

[A3MIRAL]

Of course there are variables :/

[FCKSHTUP]

i suppose every language does, what could you accomplish without em

[Hanoko]

okey, i will do another tutorial with the use of variable.

Thanks for the suggestion, i have changed it.

You can write almost any program without using functions, loops, if statements, and even variables in c. Recursion FTW!!!

No, I'd say you need functions & if statements.

[C0deH4cker]

Try this then:

Code: ("C") [Select]


main(t,_,a )
char
*
a;
{
return!

0<t?
t<3?

main(-79,-13,a+
main(-87,1-_,
main(-86, 0, a+1 )


+a)):

1,
t<_?
main( t+1, _, a )
:3,

main ( -94, -27+t, a )
&&t == 2 ?_
<13 ?

main ( 2, _+1, "%s %d %d\n" )

:9:16:
t<0?
t<-72?
main( _, t,
"@n'+,#'/*{}w+/w#cdnr/+,{}r/*de}+,/*{*+,/w{%+,/w#q#n+,/#{l,+,/n{n+,/+#n+,/#;#q#n+,/+k#;*+,/'r :'d*'3,}{w+K w'K:'+}e#';dq#'l q#'+d'K#!/+k#;q#'r}eKK#}w'r}eKK{nl]'/#;#q#n'){)#}w'){){nl]'/+#n';d}rw' i;# ){nl]!/n{n#'; r{#w'r nc{nl]'/#{l,+'K {rw' iK{;[{nl]'/w#q#n'wk nw' iwk{KK{nl]!/w{%'l##w#' i; :{nl]'/*{q#'ld;r'}{nlwb!/*de}'c ;;{nl'-{}rw]'/+,}##'*}#nc,',#nw]'/+kd'+e}+;#'rdq#w! nr'/ ') }+}{rl#'{n' ')# }'+}##(!!/")
:
t<-50?
_==*a ?
putchar(31[a]):

main(-65,_,a+1)
:
main((*a == '/') + t, _, a + 1 )
:

0<t?

main ( 2, 2 , "%s")
:*a=='/'||

main(0,

main(-61,*a, "!ek;dc i@bK'(q)-[w]*%n+r3#l,{}:\nuwloca-O;m .vpbks,fxntdCeghiry")

,a+1);}



Can you guess what it does?

This is what obfuscated C code looks like, folks.

[C0deH4cker]

No, I'd say you need functions & if statements.

The only needed variables are provided as function parameters, and you can use the shorthand C comparison ternary operator.
