Learn how to use PHP to create tabulated data with this easy step-by-step guide, complete with example code.

Creating a Basic PHP Program

PHP is a popular scripting language for creating websites, and it is relatively easy to learn even if you are a beginner. In this tutorial, we will create a basic program in PHP to output "Hello, World!" to the browser.

First, let's create a file called hello.php, and open it in a text editor. We will now add our code. We will start by adding the opening

 tag, which tells the server that this is a PHP file.


Next, we will add the code to output our message. We will use the echo command, which outputs whatever is inside the quotes. So, we will add the following code:

echo "Hello, World!";

Finally, we will add the closing 
?>
 tag, which tells the server that this is the end of the PHP file.


Now, we can save the file and open it in a browser. We should see our message, "Hello, World!" displayed on the page.

This is the basic structure of a PHP program. We can now start adding more code to create more complex programs.
