I will soon be releasing my list of the top 50 PHP functions and functionalities.

… Something of a list of ‘to-learns’ or just a handy list of useful PHP snippets.

Stefan,

Did you come across that key group of PHP functions? Or the article that you wrote?

I’d really like to study that list as I am sure it will provide much insight.

Sas171,

Personally, I believe people have so much trouble learning OOP (object oriented programming) is because they can’t find a good teacher!

I’ve read so many books on the subject and spoken to many OOP nerds and they all seem to have a problem explaining the basic concepts of OOP … they always resort to the classic analogies that IMHO, are weak.

… I’ve written a tutorial on OOP and PHP that from reader response, goes a long to way to demystify object oriented programming.

To speed up the learning of programming it is useful to learn some key concepts at first. I think the problem that Jordan has is that there is no structure in PHP by default (like in many other languages). On the hard way of bringing structure to your code it is good to know some time approved tools like refactoring.

I think it is wrong way to learn functional programming first and then OOP. It will be very hard to think in objects after you learned to think in procedures, I know many great programmers that couldn’t teach themselves to think different.
