Installation on Unix systems

Home >>Installation of PHP  >>Installation on Unix Systems

 Installing PHP on Unix System is now become so easy because of the software bundle (LAMP) 

LAMP can be installed in two ways

1) GUI Mode
LAMP refers to Linux + Apache + MySQL + PHP so installing these will give you an LAMP server, to install that easily you can use tasksel which you can install by opening a terminal (ctrl+alt+t) and do:

sudo apt-get install tasksel

After that is done call tasksel with sudo rights

sudo tasksel

Which will show you a window similar to the one in following screen-shot:


Move your selector to the LAMP entry and press space to mark it, then press tab to highlight the <ok> field and press return. This starts the installation process.

2) Command Line Mode:

As pointed out by the GUI window tasksel is not necessarily needed to do the lamp-server installation you can as well do it by simply entering:

sudo apt-get lamp-server^

The ^ is essential here.

To know more, please watch this video. It will help the task easy to install.

Float

Home  >> Data Types   >> Float Float Floating point numbers (also known as "floats", "doubles", or "real numbers") can be specified using any of the following syntaxes: <?php $a  =  1.234 ;  $b  =  1.2e3 ;  $c  =  7E-10 ; ?> Formally LNUM          [0-9]+ DNUM          ([0-9]*[\.]{LNUM}) | ({LNUM}[\.][0-9]*) EXPONENT_DNUM [+-]?(({LNUM} | {DNUM}) [eE][+-]? {LNUM}) The size of a float is platform-dependent, although a maximum of ~1.8e308 with a precision of roughly 14 decimal digits is a common value (the 64 bit IEEE format). Floating point precision Floating point numbers have limited precision. Although it depends on the system, PHP typically uses the IEEE 754 double precision format, which will give a maximum relative error due to rounding in the order of 1.11e-16. Non elementary arithmetic ...

FastCGI Process Manager

Home  >> Installation of PHP  >>FastCGI Process Manager FastCGI Process Manager: FPM (FastCGI Process Manager) is another method of installing PHP with extra features. It is mostly useful for heavy-loaded sites.  The important features are:  advanced process management with graceful stop/start;  ability to start workers with different uid/gid/chroot/environment, listening on different ports and using different php.ini (replaces safe_mode);  stdout and stderr logging;  emergency restart in case of accidental opcode cache destruction;  accelerated upload support; "slowlog" - logging scripts (not just their names, but their PHP backtraces too, using ptrace and similar things to read remote process' execute_data) that are executed unusually slow; fastcgi_finish_request() - special function to finish request and flush all data while continuing to do something time-consuming (video converting, stats processing etc.); ...

Boolean Type

Home  >> Data Types   >> Boolean The boolean type returns the value either TRUE or FALSE Syntax In order to specify the boolean variable, use the constants TRUE or FALSE. Both are case-insensitive <?php $coderz  =  True ;  // assign the value TRUE to $coderz ?> Typically, the   control structure depends upon the value of boolean operator. Because, it returns either TRUE or FALSE <?php // == is an operator which tests // equality and returns a boolean if ( $name ==  "coderz" ) {     echo  "Coderztoday is the best online tutorial" ; } // this is not necessary... if ( $name ==TRUE) {     echo  "<hr>\n" ; } // ...because this can be used with exactly the...
