PHP First Lesson

This is suitable for people who are just learning programming. This page is a record of what Roger and I were able to accomplish in the first lesson. Charles was there too, but he was fated to drop out because he could not type very fast.

A big question could be, “Why PHP?” Well, PHP has an easy syntax and is extremely useful for web-based programming. It's a great starter, with better syntax than Python. And, why not?

1. Hello World

Run this. What does it do? What is ECHO?

<?php
	echo "Hello, world!\n";
?>

ex.2 echo.php

Another example.

<?php

	echo "Hello, my name is Appledog!\n";

?>

ex.3 roger.php

<?php
	echo "<---- he is Roger!\n";
	echo "I am appledog! wheee!\n";
	echo "He is Charles! ------>\n";
?>

ex. 4 box.php

We can draw art. Can you make a triangle? (homework!)

<?php

	echo "*****\n";
	echo "*   *\n";
	echo "*   *\n";
	echo "*   *\n";
	echo "*****\n";

?>
