yoursurrogategod Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Jump into an open source PHP project. Say you start out doing documentation for Codeigniter or CakePHP. Then you dig into the internals and find out more about OOP and such. The maintainers of those projects are a great opportunity to learn more from and you'll be working on maintaining and developing a framework, hardly something that's "simple".

scootstah Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 What do you consider 'complex'? Yeah, that's really the question here. You need to figure out which areas of PHP (or programming in general) you are weak in, and then research those specific topics.

Mahngiel Posted August 6, 2012 Share Posted August 6, 2012 Yeah, that's really the question here. You need to figure out which areas of PHP (or programming in general) you are weak in, and then research those specific topics. When you're new to any language, not knowing what you don't know that can be useful to the endeavor is one of the hardest parts. From there, it's just googling those topics. To that end, i think surrogategod's suggestion is a valid one. Getting open-source frameworks / applications, playing with it, and extending it is how I learned what i know ( supplemented with shit loads of google and these boards, ofc ) Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/266735-complex-php/#findComment-1367333 Share on other sites More sharing options...
son.of.the.morning Posted August 7, 2012 Author Share Posted August 7, 2012 I have been picking up cakephp for the last few months and i feel rather comfortable with it. I just want to see what other people find to be complex issues when programming in php so i can give them a shot and not only pick up on it but also test my current understanding Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/266735-complex-php/#findComment-1367414 Share on other sites More sharing options...

KevinM1 Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 What do you consider 'complex'? 1+i Man, my math is rusty. Is that complex or imaginary? Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/266735-complex-php/#findComment-1367619 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted August 7, 2012 Share Posted August 7, 2012 What do you consider 'complex'? 1+i Man, my math is rusty. Is that complex or imaginary? Complex, the "i" is the imaginary part. A complex number just consists of a real and imaginary number, the real part being 1 in this case, and the imaginary part being i. It's pretty simple, actually.
