Hello all,
I have three weeks to perform the following basic task.
I wish to create an online form in PHP that will get 5 numbers and with them:
- save the numbers to a MySQL DB
- do a simple computation on the numbers and return them as an output to the visitor
I already have a domain, hosting and a MySQL database+user.
I don't know PHP, or SQL or databases. I do have prior knowledge in C and R (which means I have some of the basics of programming, and I am not intimidated of a new languages).
My question are:
- Am I missing something? is there some other skill I should have for this task that I don't know of?
- What is a good way to learn the skills needed for the task I described?
Hope the question isn't too basic/general.
Thanks!
