[PHP]Let’s Display Letters![Programming for Kids and Above #2]

Hello, I’m kat, the manager of kat’s blog.

This article will be the second installment of the [Programming for Kids and Above] lecture series.

I explained about what programming is in my first article, so please check it if you haven’t seen it yet.

In the second installment, let’s go ahead and write out a program and display letters!

What we will use this time

PHP

Let’s go ahead and write out a program.

This time, we will be programming on a website called ‘paiza.’

First, let’s display the website by clicking the link below.

paiza website

Once the website is displayed, check to make sure that the button on the top left is showing as ‘PHP.’

If it hasn’t changed, choose ‘PHP.’

Once it is selected, please try writing the following in the source code area.

<?php

// Display letters
echo 'Hello World!';

After writing in the source code, click the ‘Run (Ctrl-Enter)’ button like the following image.

Then the result will be displayed.

If letters saying ‘Hello World!’ are displayed in the result area, it is a success.

Now allow me to give a brief explanation about the program.

<?php

// Display letters

echo 'Hello World!';

Final thoughts

We only covered simple programs which allow you to display things on the screen,
but I’m planning on writing about more interesting programs from next time, so please look forward to it.

See you next time!
