The P in LAMP stood for Perl before it stood for Python or PHP.
And it started standing for Python at the same time it started standing for PHP.
Why do I suspect the author wasn’t born back then and is just making up facts to suit their argument?
- pelasaco 5y agoI thought that too, but looking up the term, apparently not. From the Wikipedia (english version): "The acronym LAMP was coined by Michael Kunze in the December 1998 issue of Computertechnik, a German computing magazine.." where unfortunately it doesn't give a hint of the "P", but in the German version of the same article you have: "Der ursprüngliche LAMP Stack besteht aus den vier Komponenten Linux (Betriebssystem), Apache (Webserver), MySQL (Datenbanksystem) und PHP (serverseitiger Skript-Interpreter). Diese Komponenten sind wiederverwendbar und in unterschiedlichem Umfeld und Zusammensetzung nutzbar." which means something like "the original stack was composed by Apache, MySQL and PHP" References: - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAMP_(software_bundle) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAMP_(software_bundle) - https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAMP_(Softwarepaket) https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAMP_(Softwarepaket)
