  • It is a superglobal array used to retrieve data sent via an HTML form using the POST method.
  • It is a superglobal array used to retrieve data sent in the URL's query string using the GET method.
  • It is a superglobal array used to retrieve data sent in the URL's query string using the POST method.
The $_GET superglobal in PHP is an associative array that is used to retrieve data sent in the URL's query string using the GET method. When data is sent to the server using the GET method, the values are appended to the URL as key-value pairs. The $_GET superglobal allows access to these values by using the corresponding key as an index. Learn more: https://www.php.net/manual/en/reserved.variables.get.php

How do you handle errors when creating a MySQL table using PHP?

  • Check the return value of the mysqli_query() function and use error handling techniques
  • Set up a custom error handling function
  • Use the try-catch block with exception handling
  • All of the above
When creating a MySQL table using PHP, you can handle errors by checking the return value of the mysqli_query() function. If the mysqli_query() function returns false, it indicates an error occurred during the query execution. You can then use error handling techniques such as mysqli_error() or mysqli_errno() to get detailed error information. Additionally, you can set up a custom error handling function using mysqli_set_error_handler() to define how errors should be handled. Another approach is to use the try-catch block with exception handling to catch and handle any exceptions that may occur during the table creation process. Proper error handling helps in diagnosing and resolving issues during database operations.

You have a PHP script and you need to create an object from a class. How would you do this?

  • Using the new keyword and the class name
  • Using the create() function and the class name
  • Using the instanceof keyword and the class name
  • Using the object() function and the class name
In PHP, to create an object from a class, you use the new keyword followed by the class name and parentheses. The correct option is "Using the new keyword and the class name." This instantiates an object based on the defined class. For more information, consult the PHP documentation on creating objects: http://php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.php

PHP code is enclosed in ______ and ______ tags.

  • <?php, ?>
  • <html>, </html>
  • <php>, </php>
  • <script>, </script>
PHP code is typically enclosed in <?php and ?> tags. When the PHP interpreter encounters these tags, it knows to start and stop interpreting the code between them as PHP code. This allows you to embed PHP code in an HTML file. Learn more: https://www.php.net/manual/en/language.basic-syntax.phptags.php

Which of the following are true about the for loop in PHP?

  • It allows you to specify the exact number of iterations
  • It always executes the code block at least once
  • It can be used to iterate over an array
  • It is the only loop construct available in PHP
The for loop in PHP allows you to specify the exact number of iterations you want the loop to perform. By initializing a counter variable, setting the condition for termination, and updating the counter after each iteration, you can control the flow of the loop. The for loop will execute the code block as long as the condition is true. It is a versatile loop construct that can be used to iterate over arrays, perform a specific number of iterations, or perform repetitive tasks.
