Module 8

   This week we worked with strings in PHP. I have has plenty of experience with strings in other coding languages, but implementing them in PHP proved to be a daunting task. I based my string upon an example from the module presentation, and the amount of syntax that went into creating a couple simple strings was astounding. Obviously, when creating strings for functions, they are very important because they allow the software to communicate with the user. A function with no strings is possible, but would be almost impossible for the user to understand. Also, the output from some functions could be a string as well, so functions and strings go hand-in-hand a lot of the time.
    We also were given the task to start an outline for our final design project. I have chosen to make this project very useful for myself and create my own portfolio website. I have created websites before, but the new thing I learn every time is that the creative process for each website is so different. Each website is its own special design, and being able to create a new project is both fun and exciting.
