Object-Oriented Programming in PHP
Object-oriented programming (OOP) in PHP is used to create reusable objects that can be used in a program. OOP involves creating classes, which are templates for objects, and then creating objects from those classes.
For example, a simple class that defines a Person object:
class Person {
public $name;
public $age;
public function __construct($name, $age) {
$this->name = $name;
$this->age = $age;
}
}
In this example, the class Person is defined with two properties, $name, and $age. The constructor is also defined which takes two parameters, $name, and $age, and assigns them to the object’s properties. The output of this class when an object is created would be an instance of the Person class with the properties $name and $age set to the values passed in the constructor.
