Did you read what I wrote ?
First I do code, and I have coded projects with as many as 60,000 lines (clipper).
In this case I run an ISP, work about 85 hours a week ( if that's lazy then I the
laziest ). I have read most of the wrox PHP book (600 pages+), as well as
havinging coded a complete UAS system, with many features.
I hired a sub who didn't code modular, organized or for that matter logical, so I
basically re-wrote 85% of the code for the system, BUT not having the experience
in PHP I want to be able to 1 benefit from not having to code to do some quick and
dirty stuff for testing, but also compare how what we have done is written to the
results from this code. I consider many things in how I design and impliment
programs that todays programmers don't, like why dump an sql result into an array
because it is easy, when I know that if there are too many records returned to the
array it could lock up a web server, or how efficient modularity makes your coding
along with planning and organized field names, stuctures etc.
The perfect example is the contractor we hired and his lack of experience, we had
a user database that would be querried for user type, standard, master,
administrator etc, well this guy made 5 modules 1 for each type of user, and in
that ALL THAT DUPLICATE CODE....stupid. I rewrote the entire module in a simple,
cleaner and more efficient function which accepts the parameter of what client
type you want. Now that doesn't make me a PHP guru, it's just the right and more
efficient way to do things, but there are secrets, and more efficient ways to do
things in all languages, and I simply want to see others to see how I can benefit
and learn.
Before you flame at least read the entire message and make sure of what the person
is saying, not just hey give me some code man......
