Advantages of PL/SQL

These are the advantages of PL/SQL.

    * Block Structures: PL SQL consists of blocks of code, which can be nested within each other. Each block forms a unit of a task or a logical module. PL/SQL Blocks can be stored in the database and reused.



    *  Procedural Language Capability: PL SQL consists of procedural language constructs such as conditional statements (if else statements) and loops like (FOR loops).

    *  Better Performance: PL SQL engine processes multiple SQL statements simultaneously as a single block, thereby reducing network traffic.

    * Error Handling: PL/SQL handles errors or exceptions effectively during the execution of a PL/SQL program. Once an exception is caught, specific actions can be taken depending upon the type of the exception or it can be displayed to the user with a message.

Default value is “localhost” username specifies the username to log in with. Default value is the name of the user that owns the server process. To connect offline we use username “root”. password specifies the password to log in with. Default is “” Code : Creating connection to the database and selecting the required database <?php $con = mysql_connect(“localhost”,”root”,”"); if (!$con) { die(‘Could not connect: ‘ . mysql_error()); } else{ mysql_select_db(“test”, $con) }; ?> Here, we have store connection in a variable called $con and trap error using die function. Closing connection The connection will be closed automatically when the script ends. To close the connection before, use the mysql_close() function: <?php $con = mysql_conne...

Type Juggling and Type Casting

Type Juggling: PHP does not require (or support) explicit type definition in variable declaration; a variable's type is determined by the context in which the variable is used. That is to say, if a string value is assigned to variable $var, $var becomes a string. If an integer value is then assigned to $var, it becomes an integer.

Doctype Defination

A Document Type Declaration, or DOCTYPE, is an instruction that associates a particular SGML or XML document (for example, a webpage) with a Document Type Definition (DTD). Syntax The general syntax for a document type declaration is: <!DOCTYPE root-element PUBLIC "FPI" ["URI"] [ <!-- internal subset declarations --> ]>
