PHP is more like birds. Technically, they're dinosaurs, but they've evolved and stayed relevant after Perl, etc. went extinct.

- boringg 4y agoI believe you mean they are more like pterosaurs
- sophacles 4y agoI bet they mean birds, aka modern dinosaurs. This is a good 'aka' because dinosaur made baby dinosaurs who grew up to make their own baby dinosaurs. Each generation was slightly different than the last and after millions of years, the baby dinosaurs were named birds!
- boringg 4y agoWell any dinosaur that existed and flew wasn't actually a dinosaur but rather a pterosaur. However I did a quick spot check and realize that modern day birds didn't evolved from pterosaurs but rather from dinosaurs surprised. So I stand corrected.
- sophacles 4y ago> Well any dinosaur that existed and flew wasn't actually a dinosaur but rather a pterosaur. I believe you mean: "but rather a pterosaur or bird".
- Tuna-Fish 4y agoAnd just to emphasize: This is nitpicky, but it is correct. In the phylogenic sense, birds are dinosaurs. It's not that there used to be dinosaurs, some of which evolved into birds and there are no dinosaurs left anymore, but rather there are about 18000 extant dinosaur species in the world today, it's just that they have feathers and most of them fly.
- boringg 4y agoTo be further nitpicky - I believe the current theory is that most dinosaurs did have feathers. I believe that birds are descendents from theropods and yes phylogenic-wise dinosaurs. However that seems a bit semantic.
- boringg 4y agoActually no there were no birds in existence while there were dinosaurs only millions of years after their extinction per current evidence.
