Textbook Readings

I was assigned Chapter 4, 5, and 9 for Mod Three.

Chapters 4 and 5 focused on the basics of SQL syntax and went over commands as well as how to create a database. Prior to this assignment, I had completed the SQL tutorial on W3Schools so I had a basic knowledge on how the commands worked. However, the textbook helped cement these concepts and also provided background information.

Chapter 9 was a bit more difficult because it was my first time interacting with a database. However, it was an interesting learning experience. The program focused on the relationship between PHP and MySQL. Their interaction basically built the program and you can see it in action using the link below. The application can register new users, view the users, and change your password. I had a great time working on it.

This is my working sample program from Chapter 9.
