Thread: Why PHP is the best programming language

PHP is, in my opinion, one of the best programming languages out there, because it is the easiest to learn and is also one of the most widely supported, with a lot of the other ones, i.e. ASP, being discontinued.

I agree. It's easy to learn and has a lot of open-sources. Plus, there's also a lot of PHP developers who give away tips and advises.

PHP is easy to under stand and easy to learn.

Many leading companies use many different languages ​​in the programming.
Of course, each language would be appropriate for different tasks.

Php is the best programming language so its features and quality is great.

The great advantages of PHP Web Development are as following:

[1] It costs low with cost effective database applications

[2] Improves the visibility of organization by building excellent performance data warehouse applications

[3] The experts are skilled with proper art of developing automated application development systems, which is useful in upgrading manual processes.

[4] Also they provide assistance to platforms like Microsoft Windows, IBM AIX, Linux, Sun Solaris, QNX, Mac OS X, etc.

I have chosen to pick up C++ during my graduate school days. All the same it is a bit complex but then again still I favor C++ for lettering program cyphers.

PHP has so many different capabilities, and is relatively easier to learn than many of the other languages. I'm wondering if I should learn it, because it seems the market is over saturated with PHP programmers, and I'm just wondering, if I learned it, would there be a chance I could make good money programming for people? If not, I could still do it for myself.

PHP different is that unlike the others, it focuses on website development. It was made to easily integrate with HTML. It is free and very simple to install. It supports many different operating systems. All these factors contributed to what made PHP standout, and this is why it took off as fast as it did.

PHP is great. It works, it's simple, and it's got a syntax a guy familiar with C and work with. Perl with CGI is also a good option if you are already a Unix guy and don't want to learn a new language to do something simple. PHP will work for whatever you're doing most likely.

For the more advanced things, Perl or Python are really good. IRC and Web bots and more critical content management that have special needs.

If interpereted language doesn't cut it, you can use C like Slash does and actually create a program interfacing with perl to create a highly stable, long running content management system for sites which have high amounts of traffic. eBay and Slashdot have content mangagement systems using compiled code interfaced with Perl+CGI. Chances are you will never need this.

Its best programming language and easy to use.
