Topic: PHP Basics โ€“ Part 1 of 10: Introduction and Syntax

---

1. What is PHP?

โ€ข PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) is a widely-used, open-source server-side scripting language designed for web development.

โ€ข Embedded in HTML and used to create dynamic web pages, manage databases, handle forms, sessions, and more.

---

2. Why Use PHP?

โ€ข Easy to learn and integrates seamlessly with HTML.

โ€ข Works well with MySQL and popular servers like Apache or Nginx.

โ€ข Supported by major CMS platforms like WordPress, Drupal, and Joomla.

---

3. PHP Syntax Overview

โ€ข PHP code is written inside <?php ... ?> tags.

<?php
echo "Hello, World!";
?>


โ€ข Every PHP statement ends with a semicolon (`;`).

---

4. Basic Output with `echo` and `print`

<?php
echo "This is output using echo";
print "This is output using print";
?>


โ€ข echo is slightly faster; print returns a value.

---

5. PHP Variables

โ€ข Variables start with a dollar sign (`$`) and are case-sensitive.

<?php
$name = "Ali";
$age = 25;
echo "My name is $name and I am $age years old.";
?>


---

6. PHP Comments

// Single-line comment
# Also single-line comment
/* Multi-line
comment */


---

7. Summary

โ€ข PHP is a server-side scripting language used to build dynamic web applications.

โ€ข Basic syntax includes echo, variables with $, and proper use of <?php ... ?> tags.

---

Exercise

โ€ข Write a simple PHP script that defines two variables ($name and $age) and prints a sentence using them.

Topic: PHP Basics โ€“ Part 2 of 10: Data Types and Operators

---

1. PHP Data Types

PHP supports multiple data types. The most common include:

โ€ข String โ€“ A sequence of characters.

$name = "Ali";


โ€ข Integer โ€“ Whole numbers.

$age = 30;


โ€ข Float (Double) โ€“ Decimal numbers.

$price = 19.99;


โ€ข Boolean โ€“ true or false.

$is_active = true;


โ€ข Array โ€“ Collection of values.

$colors = array("red", "green", "blue");


โ€ข Object, NULL, Resource โ€“ Used in advanced scenarios.

---

2. Type Checking Functions

var_dump($variable); // Displays type and value
is_string($name); // Returns true if $name is a string
is_array($colors); // Returns true if $colors is an array


---

3. PHP Operators

โ€ข Arithmetic Operators

$a = 10;
$b = 3;
echo $a + $b; // Addition
echo $a - $b; // Subtraction
echo $a * $b; // Multiplication
echo $a / $b; // Division
echo $a % $b; // Modulus


โ€ข Assignment Operators

$x = 5;
$x += 3; // same as $x = $x + 3


โ€ข Comparison Operators

$a == $b  // Equal
$a === $b // Identical (value + type)
$a != $b // Not equal
$a > $b // Greater than


โ€ข Logical Operators

($a > 0 && $b > 0) // AND
($a > 0 || $b > 0) // OR
!$a // NOT


---

4. String Concatenation

โ€ข Use the dot (.) operator to join strings.

$first = "Hello";
$second = "World";
echo $first . " " . $second;


---

5. Summary

โ€ข PHP supports multiple data types and a wide variety of operators.

โ€ข You can check and manipulate data types easily using built-in functions.

---

Exercise

โ€ข Create two variables: one string and one number. Perform arithmetic and string concatenation, and print the results.

Topic: PHP Basics โ€“ Part 3 of 10: Control Structures (if, else, elseif, switch, loops)

---

1. Conditional Statements in PHP

PHP allows decision-making in your code through control structures like if, else, elseif, and switch.

---

2. `if`, `else`, and `elseif` Statements

<?php
$score = 85;

if ($score >= 90) {
echo "Grade: A";
} elseif ($score >= 80) {
echo "Grade: B";
} elseif ($score >= 70) {
echo "Grade: C";
} else {
echo "Grade: F";
}
?>


โ€ข The condition inside if() must return true or false.

โ€ข You can chain multiple conditions using elseif.

---

3. `switch` Statement

โ€ข Good for checking a variable against multiple possible values.

<?php
$day = "Tuesday";

switch ($day) {
case "Monday":
echo "Start of the week!";
break;
case "Friday":
echo "Weekend is near!";
break;
case "Sunday":
echo "Rest day!";
break;
default:
echo "Just another day.";
}
?>


โ€ข Each case must end with a break to avoid fall-through.

---

4. Loops in PHP

Loops allow repeating code multiple times.

---

5. `while` Loop

<?php
$i = 0;
while ($i < 5) {
echo "Number: $i<br>";
$i++;
}
?>


โ€ข Repeats while the condition is true.

---

6. `do...while` Loop

<?php
$i = 0;
do {
echo "Count: $i<br>";
$i++;
} while ($i < 3);
?>


โ€ข Executes at least once even if the condition is false initially.

---

7. `for` Loop

<?php
for ($i = 1; $i <= 5; $i++) {
echo "Line $i<br>";
}
?>


โ€ข Most commonly used loop with initializer, condition, and increment.

---

8. `foreach` Loop

โ€ข Used to iterate over arrays.

<?php
$colors = array("red", "green", "blue");
foreach ($colors as $color) {
echo "Color: $color<br>";
}
?>


โ€ข Also works with key-value pairs:

<?php
$person = array("name" => "Ali", "age" => 28);
foreach ($person as $key => $value) {
echo "$key: $value<br>";
}
?>


---

9. Control Keywords

โ€ข break โ€“ Exit a loop or switch.
โ€ข continue โ€“ Skip current iteration and go to the next.

for ($i = 1; $i <= 5; $i++) {
if ($i == 3) continue;
echo "$i<br>";
}


---

10. Summary

โ€ข Conditional logic (if, else, switch) helps make decisions.

โ€ข Loops (for, while, foreach) help automate repetitive tasks.

โ€ข Control flow is critical for building dynamic applications.

---

Exercise

โ€ข Write a PHP script that prints numbers 1 to 20, but skips multiples of 3 using continue, and stops completely if the number is 17 using break.

Topic: PHP Basics โ€“ Part 4 of 10: Arrays in PHP (Indexed, Associative, Multidimensional)

---

1. What is an Array in PHP?

โ€ข An array is a special variable that can hold multiple values at once.

โ€ข In PHP, arrays can be indexed, associative, or multidimensional.

---

2. Indexed Arrays

โ€ข Stores values with a numeric index (starting from 0).

$fruits = array("apple", "banana", "cherry");
echo $fruits[1]; // Output: banana


โ€ข Add elements:

$fruits[] = "grape"; // Adds to the end of the array


โ€ข Count elements:

echo count($fruits); // Output: 4


โ€ข Loop through indexed array:

foreach ($fruits as $fruit) {
echo $fruit . "<br>";
}


---

3. Associative Arrays

โ€ข Uses named keys instead of numeric indexes.

$person = array(
"name" => "Ali",
"age" => 30,
"city" => "Istanbul"
);
echo $person["name"]; // Output: Ali


โ€ข Loop through associative array:

foreach ($person as $key => $value) {
echo "$key: $value<br>";
}


---

4. Multidimensional Arrays

โ€ข Arrays containing one or more arrays.

$students = array(
array("Ali", 90, 85),
array("Sara", 95, 88),
array("Omar", 78, 82)
);

echo $students[0][0]; // Output: Ali
echo $students[1][2]; // Output: 88


โ€ข Loop through multidimensional array:

for ($i = 0; $i < count($students); $i++) {
for ($j = 0; $j < count($students[$i]); $j++) {
echo $students[$i][$j] . " ";
}
echo "<br>";
}


---

5. Array Functions You Should Know

โ€ข count() โ€“ Number of elements
โ€ข array_push() โ€“ Add to end
โ€ข array_pop() โ€“ Remove last element
โ€ข array_merge() โ€“ Merge arrays
โ€ข in_array() โ€“ Check if value exists
โ€ข array_keys() โ€“ Get all keys
โ€ข sort(), rsort() โ€“ Sort indexed array
โ€ข asort(), ksort() โ€“ Sort associative array by value/key

$colors = array("red", "blue", "green");
sort($colors);
print_r($colors);


---

6. Summary

โ€ข Arrays are powerful tools for storing multiple values.

โ€ข Indexed arrays use numeric keys; associative arrays use named keys.

โ€ข PHP supports nested arrays for more complex structures.

---

Exercise

โ€ข Create a multidimensional array of 3 students with their names and 2 grades.

โ€ข Print the average grade of each student using a nested loop.

Topic: PHP Basics โ€“ Part 5 of 10: Functions in PHP (User-Defined, Built-in, Parameters, Return)

---

1. What is a Function in PHP?

โ€ข A function is a block of code that performs a specific task and can be reused.

โ€ข PHP has many built-in functions, and you can also create your own user-defined functions.

---

2. Creating User-Defined Functions

function greet() {
echo "Hello, welcome to PHP!";
}

greet(); // Call the function


โ€ข Function names are case-insensitive.

---

3. Functions with Parameters

โ€ข Functions can accept arguments (input values):

function greetUser($name) {
echo "Hello, $name!";
}

greetUser("Ali"); // Output: Hello, Ali!


โ€ข You can pass multiple parameters:

function add($a, $b) {
return $a + $b;
}

echo add(3, 5); // Output: 8


---

4. Default Parameter Values

โ€ข Parameters can have default values if not passed during the call:

function greetLanguage($name, $lang = "English") {
echo "Hello $name, language: $lang";
}

greetLanguage("Sara"); // Output: Hello Sara, language: English


---

5. Returning Values from Functions

function square($num) {
return $num * $num;
}

$result = square(6);
echo $result; // Output: 36


โ€ข Use the return statement to send a value back from the function.

---

6. Variable Scope in PHP

โ€ข Local Scope: Variable declared inside function โ€“ only accessible there.

โ€ข Global Scope: Variable declared outside โ€“ accessible inside with global.

$x = 5;

function showX() {
global $x;
echo $x;
}

showX(); // Output: 5


---

7. Anonymous Functions (Closures)

โ€ข Functions without a name โ€“ often used as callbacks.

$square = function($n) {
return $n * $n;
};

echo $square(4); // Output: 16


---

8. Recursive Functions

โ€ข A function that calls itself.

function factorial($n) {
if ($n <= 1) return 1;
return $n * factorial($n - 1);
}

echo factorial(5); // Output: 120


---

9. Built-in PHP Functions (Examples)

โ€ข strlen($str) โ€“ Get string length
โ€ข strtoupper($str) โ€“ Convert to uppercase
โ€ข array_sum($arr) โ€“ Sum of array elements
โ€ข isset($var) โ€“ Check if variable is set
โ€ข empty($var) โ€“ Check if variable is empty

---

10. Summary

โ€ข Functions keep your code organized, reusable, and clean.

โ€ข Mastering parameters, return values, and scopes is key to effective programming.

---

Exercise

โ€ข Write a function that takes a name and age, and returns a sentence like:
"My name is Ali and I am 30 years old."

โ€ข Then, write a recursive function to compute the factorial of a number.

Topic: PHP Basics โ€“ Part 6 of 10: Forms and User Input Handling

---

1. Introduction to Forms in PHP

โ€ข Forms are the primary way to collect data from users.

โ€ข PHP interacts with HTML forms to receive and process user input.

โ€ข Two main methods to send data:

* GET: Data is appended in the URL (visible).
* POST: Data is sent in the request body (more secure).

---

2. Creating a Basic HTML Form

<form action="process.php" method="post">
Name: <input type="text" name="username"><br>
Email: <input type="email" name="email"><br>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>


โ€ข action defines where the form data will be sent.

โ€ข method can be GET or POST.

---

3. Accessing Form Data in PHP

<?php
$name = $_POST['username'];
$email = $_POST['email'];

echo "Welcome $name! Your email is $email.";
?>


โ€ข $_GET and $_POST are superglobals that access data sent by the form.

---

4. Validating Form Input

Validation ensures data is clean and in the expected format before processing.

<?php
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
$name = trim($_POST["username"]);

if (empty($name)) {
echo "Name is required";
} else {
echo "Hello, $name";
}
}
?>


---

5. Sanitizing User Input

โ€ข Prevent malicious input (e.g., HTML/JavaScript code).

$name = htmlspecialchars($_POST["username"]);


โ€ข This function converts special characters to HTML entities.

---

6. Self-processing Form Example

<form method="post" action="<?php echo htmlspecialchars($_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]); ?>">
Name: <input type="text" name="username"><br>
<input type="submit">
</form>

<?php
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
$name = htmlspecialchars($_POST["username"]);
echo "Welcome, $name";
}
?>


โ€ข Using $_SERVER["PHP_SELF"] allows the form to submit to the same file.

---

7. Using the GET Method

<form action="search.php" method="get">
Search: <input type="text" name="query">
<input type="submit">
</form>


โ€ข Data is visible in the URL: search.php?query=value

---

8. File Upload with Forms

<form action="upload.php" method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">
Select file: <input type="file" name="myfile">
<input type="submit" value="Upload">
</form>


โ€ข Use enctype="multipart/form-data" to upload files.

<?php
if ($_FILES["myfile"]["error"] == 0) {
move_uploaded_file($_FILES["myfile"]["tmp_name"], "uploads/" . $_FILES["myfile"]["name"]);
echo "File uploaded!";
}
?>


---

9. Summary

โ€ข PHP handles user input through forms using the GET and POST methods.

โ€ข Always validate and sanitize input to prevent security issues.

โ€ข Forms are foundational for login systems, search bars, contact pages, and file uploads.

---

Exercise

โ€ข Create a form that asks for name, age, and email, and then displays a formatted message with validation and sanitization.

Topic: PHP Basics โ€“ Part 7 of 10: Working with Strings

---

1. Introduction to Strings in PHP

โ€ข A string is a sequence of characters used to store and manipulate text.

โ€ข Strings can be defined using single quotes (`'`) or double quotes (`"`):

$name = "Ali";
$message = 'Welcome to PHP!';


โ€ข Double quotes allow variable interpolation, single quotes do not.

---

2. Concatenating Strings

โ€ข Use the dot (.) operator to join strings.

$first = "Hello";
$second = "World";
echo $first . " " . $second; // Output: Hello World


---

3. Common String Functions in PHP

Here are essential functions to manipulate strings:

โ€ข strlen($str) โ€“ Returns the length of the string.

echo strlen("PHP"); // Output: 3


โ€ข strtoupper($str) โ€“ Converts all letters to uppercase.

โ€ข strtolower($str) โ€“ Converts all letters to lowercase.

โ€ข ucfirst($str) โ€“ Capitalizes the first letter.

โ€ข ucwords($str) โ€“ Capitalizes first letter of each word.

โ€ข strrev($str) โ€“ Reverses the string.

---

4. Searching Within Strings

โ€ข strpos($str, $search) โ€“ Finds the position of first occurrence of a substring.

echo strpos("Hello PHP", "PHP"); // Output: 6


โ€ข str_contains($str, $search) โ€“ Checks if substring exists (PHP 8+).

---

5. Extracting Substrings

โ€ข substr($str, $start, $length) โ€“ Extracts part of a string.

$text = "Welcome to PHP";
echo substr($text, 0, 7); // Output: Welcome


---

6. Replacing Text in Strings

โ€ข str_replace($search, $replace, $subject) โ€“ Replaces all occurrences.

echo str_replace("PHP", "Laravel", "Welcome to PHP"); // Output: Welcome to Laravel


---

7. Trimming and Cleaning Strings

โ€ข trim($str) โ€“ Removes whitespace from both ends.

โ€ข ltrim($str) โ€“ From the left side only.

โ€ข rtrim($str) โ€“ From the right side only.

---

8. String Comparison

โ€ข strcmp($str1, $str2) โ€“ Returns 0 if both strings are equal.

โ€ข strcasecmp($str1, $str2) โ€“ Case-insensitive comparison.

---

9. Escaping Characters

โ€ข Use backslash (\) to escape quotes:

echo "He said: \"Hello!\"";


---

10. Summary

โ€ข Strings are core to user interaction and text processing.

โ€ข PHP offers powerful built-in functions to manipulate strings efficiently.

---

Exercise

โ€ข Write a function that takes a user's full name and returns:

* The name in all caps
* The reversed name
* The first name only using substr() and strpos()
