Someone posted an article above [1], but citing from it, there is a function called mysql_real_escape_string. Although early JS also has quite odd language choices, it follows a consistent philosophy. To me it boils down to LISP in C syntax with weak typing. Past PHP feels more like a collection of stuff. But I assume modern PHP can be a viable choice if used with a modern framework, linter etc.

- TimWolla 6y agoPHP follows a consistent philosophy as well. The PHP functions are usually named after the C functions they wrap. And in fact: The MySQL C client library contains a function called mysql_real_escape_string. see: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/c-api/8.0/en/mysql-real-escape-string.html https://dev.mysql.com/doc/c-api/8.0/en/mysql-real-escape-str...
- bryanrasmussen 6y agothis code is blowing my mind - $arg = 'T'; $vehicle = ( ( $arg == 'B' ) ? 'bus' : ( $arg == 'A' ) ? 'airplane' : ( $arg == 'T' ) ? 'train' : ( $arg == 'C' ) ? 'car' : ( $arg == 'H' ) ? 'horse' : 'feet' ); echo $vehicle; can someone explain to me why it should print out 'horse'? (what the article above says) on edit: oh I get it, the false of the ternary statement here is on the left so when $arg == 'T' the true does ( $arg == 'H' ) which is false, hence printing out horse. Well there's no reason true has to come first, but it is a c-flavored language so sort of weird it doesn't.
