PHP is also 21 years old
the age of many of the world's most famous programming languages is old enough. For example, PHP was 21 years old yesterday, Python was 24, HTML had been in service for 22 years, Ruby and JavaScript had 20 years, and C had reached the age of 43.
PHP (full name: PHP:Hypertext Preprocessor, "PHP: hypertext preprocessor") is an open source general computer scripting language, especially for network development and can be embedded in HTML. PHP's syntax absorbs the characteristics of popular computer languages such as C, Java and Perl, and is easy for general programmers to learn. The main goal of PHP is to allow web developers to quickly write dynamic pages, but PHP is also used in many other areas.
PHP was first developed by Lerdorf in 1995. Now the standard of PHP is maintained by PHP Group and open source community. PHP uses PHP License as a license agreement, but because this protocol restricts the use of PHP names, it is not compatible with open source license protocol GPL. The application scope of
PHP is quite extensive, especially in the development of web page programs. Generally speaking, PHP runs mostly on Web servers, and generates user browsing web pages by running PHP code. PHP can run on most servers and operating systems, and the use of PHP is completely free. According to statistics in April 2013, PHP has been installed on more than 244 million websites and 2 million 100 thousand servers.
