8 | Conditions & Control Structures in PHP | 2023 | Learn PHP Full Course for Beginners

In this PHP tutorial I will show you how to branch your code using control structures. 🙂 Control structures include conditions such as if, else if, and else statements, as well as the switch statement. We also have the new match statement, which was included in PHP 8, which I will cover in this video.

I started to learn how to code with your videos back in 2020. I do it only as a hobby, so I take long breaks between projects and forget a lot of things. I always ended up back in your channel every time I want to do something new. That's why I wanted to thank you for such wonderful videos!

This is my first time hearing about the "match()"' condition, and I'm in love with it! I usually use so many "if-elseif-else" just to change little things, like the colour of the text depending a number, but now I can do tiny lines with the "match()". Thank you for teaching us even newest ways to improve our codes! :D

Hi Dani! I've been watching your videos non-stop the past few days. You're the best teacher on this sort of thing, I swear. I can just grasp things with you that I find harder to grasp with others.

I will forever be grateful for these informative and helpful videos. 🙏 I hope you continue to make more video lessons. It's also really engaging the way you teach.

For a suggestion could you maybe show how a website would look when you apply certain changes? The way you teach is super helpful but it would also be nice to follow along to visually see the change or maybe little ms paint drawings as demonstration lol. If you have a few videos like/or on that I might have missed them so I'm sorry!

But nonetheless I literally always come to you for my go-to for coding. You're the best and I literally can't say that enough. Thank you!

This "match()" thing looks very useful, thanks bro !

Another fantastic presentation! I can't remember smiling this much while learning, Dani. Your style just makes for terrific education all-around. After multiple degrees, decades in academia and many, many other learning endeavors, I would place your teaching skills at the very top. I never expected this to be fun - THANK YOU SO MUCH for making these videos. They have made a tremendous impact in many folks' lives, obviously! Cheers, man!

[VargasForth]

Ty very much for the informative series on PHP. I come from the MERN stack and felt that it was time to learn another language. Looking forward to do a few test projects and learn Laravel at some stage. :)

[ShawnRitch]

Well done Dani. Your teaching and video skills are getting better all the time. Thanks for all your hard work :)

Awesome tuto.
Can you share us how to create a Router class that maps the incoming request URL to a specific controller method. 😚

[borisndoh]

I learned quite some stuffs here which were minimized in my Javascript course

[Stoney_Eagle]

The match one is new to me, I like it. Much better than a ternary.
I ALWAYS use trailing commas, I hate it that it breaks in json and am forced to not have them.

Hi Dani thnx alot for the gud work ur doing to help we young developers with the required knowledge and skills, we really appreciate and may the almighty God reward u abundantly

[AleJFF]

bro, you're a mix of Elon Musk with someone else i can't figure out now haha. Anyways, great content, thanks for that.

[YvanDarcyIteriteka]

What should I do, if I want to use if..elseif...elseif..else in such a way that every single condition has to be cheched. Thanks! Your videos are instructive and helpful.

[davidmolina]

Amazing job man! 😮 Your aim and conciseness to explain everything is admirable, I understood concepts that in JavaScript wasn't fully getting in an easy and clear way. Thank you so much for the effort on putting this quality content out there🙏 One question tho: Would it be possible to check for a range of numbers? For example in the case of something like this but well written:

$result = match($a) {
[1-20], [30-40] => "You lose",
[21-29] => "You win",
};

Dani Hope You are having a good time. Can you teach on how to write an Api with vanilla PHP?

[hellofromiqbal]

You look like Elon Musk for a quick glance lol. Nice tutorials by the way. Thanks!
