php a right tool for what? the author never mentioned this. assuming it is web dev, really, php is a tad 1990s as a right tool for the job. sure it works. sure its easy. but hell, there are definitely better tools for the job, as you progress up the development skill ladder, there are options like RoR, django, flask, pyramid, anything!
