Text Reading
For this assignment we were required to continue reading Larry Ullma's PHP and MySQL for Dynamic Websites chapters 4, 5, and 9. Chapters 4 and 5 introduced the very basics for MySQL and SQL. We learned basic syntax, functions, mathematical operators, and data types for MySQL. Examples were given in the book that allowed us to create simple databases, columns, and instances of tables. This book was very useful combined with NewBoston's tutorials. The book had more indepth information and explainations that made it easier to understand MySQL. Chapter 9 was a very cool chapter because it combined MySQL with everything we learned from HTML/CSS and PHP. The exercise in chapter 9 allowed us to make a simple HTML/CSS and PHP website that allows users to register for the website and that information then gets stored into a MySQL database; which the user can check by viewing the 'View Users' tab in the exercise website. .
