Functions and control statements have always been the most interesting topic for me as a programmer. To be able to condense 8+ lines of code into one statement proves how much power software has. Continuing with PHP, this assignment used functions that we were suppose to create and call. A fresh reminder that Javascript is a client-side language and PHP is a server-side language. Not only that, but the syntax for PHP is a lot more simpler. Some additional advantages would be that PHP functions are not case sensitive and that PHP is considered a loosly typed programming language, which means that PHP does not require you to declare a data type. Although it is a straightforward process of changing a variable, it can also be seen as unreadable.
