		<title>Array Combine</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
This function combines two arrays where the first array is treated as the key and the second array as the contents of the said table. The syntax goes like this : array_combine(array1,array2), wherein the array1 is the table which contains the keys values, and the array2 is the contents. It should be noted that these [...]]]></description>

		<title>Arrays</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Arrays are what tables are to C-based programming languages and what databases are for SQL-based languages. Arrays or tables as they are sometimes called can be used to store the contents of several variables and to create one, you use the following syntax:
Array(key=>value)
The array in the syntax refers to the name of the array being [...]]]></description>

		<title>More Programming Basics</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
As with all programming languages PHP has different variable types such as numeric, character, string and Boolean types. Boolean variables in PHP always return either true or false, integers are whole numbers, floating points are decimal or scientifically notated and strings are a chain of characters. Sounds familiar, well they are and they are mostly [...]]]></description>

		<title>PHP and other Programming Languages</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The major notable difference with PHP against other languages with regards to variables is that PHP is more &#8220;intelligent&#8221;. In C for example, variables have to be explicitly defined as either numeric or alpha-numeric and can only be used to store that defined specific form of data. PHP like all other languages supports a lot [...]]]></description>

		<title>Embedding Comments</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Now, to make you a better programmer we all know the value of comments. This allows you to understand the code that you have written defining and given meaning to operations as you build them up. You start with the terminators used by PHP and end with them as well. Single line comments look like [...]]]></description>

		<title>More into the syntax of PHP</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
As you might have seen, all of the PHP statement ends with ï¿½;ï¿½ which would be somewhat similar to Perl. The valid HTML code that was handed back to the server was :



Who are You?

My name is MacGyver.


More in the coming posts when we dig deeper as we widen our understanding of PHP.

		<title>Dissecting/Understanding the first program</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The first post had you making a program that was equivalent to the &#8220;Hello World&#8221; program used for teaching basics of a programming language and here&#8217;s how it worked. When the script was requested by opening the web page, Apache intercepted the request and passed it onto PHP which parsed the script looking for the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Loop Statement &#8211; foreach</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
The foreach loop is mostly used to parse through an array that for every loop, the value of the current array content/value is assigned to the $value (after which the array pointer increments by a factor of one) then the next loop results in the next array content/value.
Syntax:
foreach (array as value)
{
 code to be executed;
}

		<title>PHP Functions</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Now that we know the basic loop statements that are commonly used in PHP, we come to one of PHP&#8217;s real power in the form of it&#8217;s built in functions. PHP has over 700 built-in functions which gives the programmer a lot of quick and fun ways to do things they would otherwise have to [...]]]></description>
