Learn PHP 7: Object Oriented Modular Programming using HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, XML, JSON, and MySQL

Authors: Prettyman, Steve
A first book of its kind on the new PHP 7 scripting language
Packed with over seventy new PHP 7 (and PHP 5.6) functions
A "learn by doing" approach with complete coding examples
Also, classroom-tested both with on-line and lecture classes

This new first to market book on PHP 7 introduces writing solid, secure, object oriented code in the new PHP 7, carfully presented in a well-paced clear fashion. Programming examples take advantage of the newest PHP features, including enhanced password encryption using password_hash. This book provides ‘learn by doing’ providing the reader with complete coding examples.

Do It exercises in each chapter provide the opportunity to make adjustments to the example code. The end of chapter programming exercises allow the reader to develop their own applications using the algorithms demonstrated in the chapter. The reader will experience the creation of a complete three tier application using a natural process of building and testing modules within each tier.
Each tier is logically and physically separated using Object Oriented and Dependency Injection techniques, thus allowing independent tiers that can be updated with little or no effect on the other tiers.In addition to teaching good programming practices through OOP, there is a strong emphasis on creating secure code. As each chapter is completed, the reader is provide the opportunity to design and create a ‘Term Project’ application reinforcing the concepts learned.
