What Book Did You Use..

gizmo291
I would like to know what book(s) did the members of trap 17 used to learn how to code if any .If you used a web-site to learn how to code please tell us why and the url of the web-site. The book that I used was PHP and MYSQL for dummies they are great books and and provide a wide-envirement to learn about. It goes from setting up your own server to explaning how to make PHP scripts and MYSQL queries.Also if you have a suggestion for a book please tell me. happy.gif

i didn't use any book
my dad teached me to browse the net when i was 9 and i used it for school stuff and music bands.
when 11, i wanted to make a Harry Potter site with a few friends.
i found a site, www.DesarrolloWeb.com (in Spanish, i'm from Uruguay, in Latin America) and it's got a lot of tutorials.
now i'm 14, and i can develope (small) scripts in PHP with MySQL db.

i left HP webs world and now i do things for friends of other HP sites in Spanish and for my parents' friends webs, but i'm just begining now.

lol.. wow I must be thick..I started making websites when I was 8 and im 13 now... and STILL i can not do anything in PHP man... lol...

If you want a to learn out of a book.... buy a talking one lol because sometimes there are things you just do not have a clue about..
I tried learning out of a book once that book for dummies is really good...
but the best way to learn things, well for me, is to learn as you go. If you want to do something look it up on the internet learn and then proceed... keep on doing so and then you will get the hang of it... it's pretty easy....probably a bit like math i guess.

I am French so i used a (great !) french website to learn PHP/MYSQL and HTML : http://www.siteduzero.com/ Now i can easily realise +1000 lines scripts...
max : 2 minute for a reply in the forum biggrin.gif
But, you have to be French to understand tongue.gif The biggest problem after learning PHP is to find a good web hosting ph34r.gif

another good way to learn any language, is trying and reading code. i mean, install a script on a web, use it as you read it's source code.

don't even think to install such a thing like phpNuke or phpBB and do so.
begin with small scripts like counters or something like that. you can find many of them on HotScripts.com. but, remember, only small code, like a tagboard.

also, in HotScripts.com you can find Books about PHP.

    lent me it. I flicked through the pages and thought with it only being a short novel I should
    give it a go. The general theme of the book is that a small boy, the son of Hitler's right hand
    man, and his family all move from their beautiful home in Berlin to a place called Out-with. The

    in the guise of writing advice to "Smelly," his unborn brother. Full Cast Audio evokes the humorous
    growing pains of Scott, his friends, and family. Ryan MacConnell does an especially good turn at

  18. Rich Dad, Poor Dad - What The Rich Teach Their Kids About Money That The Poor Do Not.
    Book review by yours truly! (2)
    It was 3 years ago. We were leaving Chapters (Bookstore in Canada, I don't know if it exists
    elsewhere) and I noticed on one of the tables a book someone had left there titled "Rich Dad, Poor
    Dad - What the Rich Tell Their Children About Money That the Poor Do Not". Not exactly being born in
    the richest of families, I was intrigued by what secrets might lie within this book. Secrets I
    would never learn unless I opened and read it's pages. I pointed the book out to my mom, she
    looked the price then put it back on the table. We left. I was kind of disapointed ....

    Angels and Demons is a book by Dan Brown. It is the first book in which Robert Langdon takes a part
    and the series of events in this book takes place one year before The Da Vinci Code. Robert
    Langdon is a professor in religious symbology at Harvard. When he gets a phone call 5 o'clock in
    the night, which says that he needs to come at once because it is of absolute importance, he
    doesn't take it serious, but when he gets a fax with a picture of a naked man with the word
    "Illuminati" burned on his chest, he is forced to travel to a Swiss research center and anal....

    James Ellroy. It's a very good police story with a intriguing plot, but it's also a
    masterpiece of politic and social analize. The power games of institutions, the corruption that have
    attacked police and government and the general undeground atmosphere are the pillars fo this
    beautiful book. It isn't a simply police book, but a fresco of a society and of a period of ....
