Great video. Love to see you refactor this into a Pagination class and then even separate the html into a very basic view, controller and model as a next level tutorial. A reusable Pagination class is really cool.

I wonder if you can use the same logic to render things like cards vs. data in a table 🤔

Please sir can you help with me on this project?
I've been trying to make a report sheet page which displays the scores and grades of students in each subjects but I couldn't get it, so when searching for solution on YouTube, I came across your channel.

3:18 Actually, why variables? These are apparently constants and won't be changed during runtime.
EDIT: well, ok, it's more elegant to create the connection string with variables, I admit. We would have to split it into several parts and connect them using dots to be able to use constants.

If the FOR LOOP is for displaying ARRAYS then what is the WHILE LOOP and other loops for?

By the way good video.
