PHP+MySQL+C+C++(Basic)

PHP & MySQL

PHP is a powerful cross platform server side script language. It is a full featured programming language capable of managing huge database driven online environments. Using PHP you can query databases, create images, read & write files, talk to remote servers - the possibilities are endless.

SALIENT FEATURES

PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language. Much of its syntax is borrowed from C, Java and Perl with a couple of unique PHP-specific features thrown in. The goal of the language is to allow web developers to write dynamically generated pages quickly

APPLICATION

Open source has brought a lot more than Linux to the computing world. It has also given us PHP and MySQL. PHP and MySQL are the world's best combination for creating data-driven sites.

For PHP & MYSQL Topics Covered

C is a general purpose Programming Language. C has proven to be a pleasant, powerful, and versatile language for a wide variety of Programs. Many of the modern languages like C++, Visual C++, Java, JavaScript, etc. is based on C Language. Therefore, not Knowing this Language is considered as a handicap. 90% of UNIX Operating System is written in C Language.

For C Topics Covered

C++

C++ is a object oriented Programming language which includes concepts like polymorphism, data-hiding, operator overloading, encapsulation and inheritance, which are not observed in C. User defined objects (instances) can be reused with and without modifications to generate new application. This reduces coding to greater extent. Even for file accessing, we use file objects.
