Chapter 9
Using Visual Studio Code
9.1 Write, Execute and Debug PHP Scripts
So far, you have learned some solid basics about PHP programming. Now it's time to explore the process of entering scripts into the computer, executing them, observing their performance, examining how they display results, and learning techniques for debugging them.
Debugging is the process of finding and reducing the number of defects (bugs) in a computer program to make it perform as expected.
As stated in Section 2.5, an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) is a type of software that enables programmers to write, execute and debug their source code. Visual Studio Code is such an example.
All the instructions you need regarding how to write, execute and debug PHP scripts on either Windows or Linux are maintained on my website at the following addresses. This gives me the flexibility to review them frequently and keep them up-to-date.
