PHP does crack your head?

I'm now on the process of learning this language but its already crack my head.. I can't understand the flow.

Does any experience the same?

Are you familiar with programming in other languages?
I think if you know one or more languages, it would be very easy for you to learn a new languages.

 

One of business principle that you should not forget : "If you can't do something then hire someone to do it for you." Pretty simple.

 

Logic, it's all about the flow and logic.

Having a real idea of what you want to build helps!

Read a security manual or twelve if you're starting out.

 

If you are having trouble with php, try something easy, like HTML, XHTML etc, they are required for good php scripting.

 

if it is the very first programming language that you are acquainted with then it will surely crack your head but if you have a background with at least one or two programming language then it will be easier. there are lots of tutorials online that can help you better understand it.

 

It's not difficult,I've learned c++ in my university,but I can understand php

 

If you have any programming background in past then you can easily learn PHP, personally i am also learning it finding few operations quite tough!

 

I've leard d# d+ and d-- but hph is still hard.

 

I'm also learning PHP right now, and i think, that it depends on how you are learning. I have two great e-books (great for me). Before i found them, it was very hard to learn. And now, i already made my own simple CMS, even that i am noob at programming.

 

I am also a self-taught and learned but I think if you want to seriously have to find a tutor

 

I read all the response on the thread and one question that I need to answer. Do I know other programming language? Yeah, I know some OOP programming language but not to much, these are (C, C++, Java, Html, CSS). Now, I found good tutorial video about creating CMS like Tumblr, its help me learn fast on PHP.

I want to learn by myself because I cant afford having private tutor and also I'm pretty busy on my full time job.

 

PHP is not hard to learn. Perl or Python for example are very hard to learn IMO, although they are similar to PHP/

 

try to learn step by step... begin with forming the habit of use PHP syntax

 

Maybe you are right, I still need to be familiar with the syntax and flow of php programming. Do you know where to get nice tutorial in it? I don't like e-books since its not direct to the point.. Hands on would be great!

 

It's very easy language mate. You should have basic understanding of programmings.
Here is what you should follow:
1. get your programming fundamental clear(flow and all that)
2. learn php syntax(you can refer w3schools)

 

@joomladesinger - Thanks for heads up mate, I will definitely learn this one sooner and get job online. Now, I just need is to understand the flow, how PHP works behind the scene and also to familiarize the syntax itself. The flow of PHP programming is like C++ and Java. Correct me if I'm wrong. lol
