Introduction to PHP

Subject: Web development using PHP and MySQL

---

PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor) is a widely-used open-source server-side scripting language that is especially suited for web development and can be embedded into HTML. It is great for creating dynamic web pages and is commonly used for building websites and web applications. PHP code is executed on the server, generating HTML which is then sent to the client's web browser. PHP can also do things like create cookies, manage sessions, and interact with databases, making it a powerful tool for web development.
