Great video. I have seen many tutorials that go over constants, but never in this much detail. I had no clear idea between the differences of const and define. Also, have seen __DIR__ used several times, but never seen anyone explain that they are "magic constants." Thanks for sharing and I'm looking forward to the rest of this course!

I've already watched a couple of php courses but this course is so far the best. For people like me, with some basic programming knowledge, this is the right course. During other courses I got bored and binged read PHP docs along with video as I wanted to know more details about language constructs and their usage. But with you, I don't have to worry about that as your detailed approach is perfect for remembering stuff efficiently and long-term. For example I've never even heard about variable variables! Thank you.

Hi there! Thanks for these videos, they are so condensed and full of information that is so hard to find elsewhere. I have one naive question: in the first lecture you make the distinction between interpreted and compiled languages, where PHP is classified to belong among the interpreted ones. So how is it that you can say that constants defined by means of the `const` keyword are defined at compile time? Could you be more precise what does it mean and how it clicks into the fact that the `const` keyword cannot be used inside the control structures? I don't quite get it. Thank you

@ProgramWithGio

Жыл бұрын

Hey, good question. So PHP is interpreted but it gets compiled down to bytecode. The compilation part is something you don't see or do, happens by the engine behind the scenes so to speak. Other languages like C++ you need to compile it yourself to be able to run, but once compiled, you can run those apps many times, for PHP though compilation happens when you first run the script. This process is usually optimized & cached if using something like opcache so it doesn't keep on recompiling. This is a good article that goes in more detail on how PHP interpreter works: www.droptica.com/blog/how-php-interpreter-works/

@@jorgetimes2 I updated my answer, I also put a link to the article that goes in more detail about how interpreter works. Hope that helps. From what I've seen, the limitations of const is mostly artificial and not a language limitation itself. Though because it needs to be defined in top level scope & is defined at "compile" time it can't be defined in control structures

Hi, you say that difference between const and define is that const are defined at compile time and define const at runtime so we can't define constants with const keyword in control structures... ok but why? What does it mean exactly? I tried to answer by myself and I thought that const in a control structure being defined at compile time before the code is run we are not entering in the control structure so when we run the script is not defined yet and we can't access that const (the script is being run but that const is not defined runtime), am I right?

I have php 8.2, using Ubuntu 22.04, and I noticed that define('STATUS_PAID', 1); (the second define at about 2:20) did not produce an error, and echo defined('STATUS_VOID'); (at about 3:00) did not show a blank page, but produced an error instead. Also, at 4:48, adding the 4 for define('STATUS_' . $paid, $paid, 4); does not print 4. It continues to print PAID. Does this have to do with you using PHP 7.4 in the video?

@ProgramWithGio

Жыл бұрын

At 2:20 you should get warning even in 8.2, make sure you have the same constant defined above before defining it again with different value.

@ProgramWithGio

Жыл бұрын

At 3:00 it should return false and when echoed it prints empty string. What error are you getting, can you share screenshot of your code & error? Maybe a typo.

@ProgramWithGio

Жыл бұрын

At 4:48 seems like you are setting $paid as the value, you should just set it to 4, do the exact same as in the video, in your example you are doing define('...' . $paid, $paid, 4)

Now I am learning PHP the right way. One question arises here is that php is a scripting language which is not compiled to run the code then how compile time 'const' is used to define constant. It should be only through define function only.

Sorry to hear that. This is a long series so certain things are covered in later videos when they apply, like class constants since the first section is about procedural PHP, the second section is about OOP so I can't cover OOP together with procedural which is why I say not to worry about it now, we'll get to it soon. Also, things like functions haven't been covered yet so when I reference the word function I simply state to not worry about it because functions are covered in a separate video. It's not like I don't cover it, I just cover it later in the course. About the speed, you are able to adjust the speed on KZread so you can watch it at 0.5x speed 👍. If you have any specific questions or if something didn't make sense feel free to msg me on Twitter, I'll be happy to answer & clear up any confusion.
