Learn the fundamentals of PHP from structural programming to object-oriented techniques.

Web Development with PHP

This highly interactive module introduces us to fundamental programming concepts in PHP—one of the most popular languages in the world. It begins with a simple “Hello, World!” program and proceeds to cover common concepts such as conditional statements, loop statements, and logic in PHP. It then reflects upon the idea of functions and arrays, as well as the power they give to the programmer to write better code.

Finally, it dives deeper into advanced concepts such as classes, inheritance, and exception handling in PHP. By the time we're done, we’ll have a good grip on the basics of PHP and will be ready to study advanced concepts.

## What are Loops?
**Loops** allow a programmer to execute the same block of code repeatedly instead of re-writing code that needs to be executed multiple times. 

We will make heavy use of conditional statements in this section, so if you want to jog your memory, head over to the [lesson on conditionals](https://www.educative.io/courses/learn-php/if-else-statement).

The following figure illustrates how loops work:
