UT2 WBP(PHP)

Q1) ANY 4
1. State the Role of Constructor.
Ans: A constructor is a special method in object-oriented programming that initializes an
object when it is created.
It automatically executes when an instance of a class is created.

2. How can we destroy cookies?


Ans: i) Cookies can be destroyed in PHP by using the setcookie() function:
ii) Ex: setcookie ("user", "", time() - 3600, "/");
iii) Explanation:
• "user" → Name of the cookie.
• "" → Empty value.
• time () - 3600 → Sets expiry time to 1 hour in the past.
• "/" → Ensures the cookie is removed from all paths in the domain.

3. List any four database operations.


1. CREATE – Insert new records into a table.
2. SELECT – Retrieve data from a table.
3. UPDATE – Modify existing data in a table.
4. DELETE – Remove data from a table.

4. List any four datatypes in MySQL.


Ans: i) INT
ii) VARCHAR
iii) DATE
iv) TEXT
v) ENUM
vi) DATE
vii) TIME
viii) TEXT

5. Define Inheritance and its Types.


Ans: Inheritance in PHP is a mechanism where one class derives properties and methods
from another class.
It helps in code reusability and hierarchical structuring.
Types of Inheritance in PHP:
1. Single Inheritance – A child class inherits from a single parent class.
2. Multiple Inheritance– A child class implements multiple interfaces.
3. Multilevel Inheritance – A class inherits from another derived class.
4. Hierarchical Inheritance – Multiple child classes inherit from a single parent class.
6. What is Introspection?
Ans: Introspection in PHP is the ability to examine the properties and methods of a class at
runtime. PHP provides built-in functions for introspection.
Common Introspection Functions:
• get_class($obj) – Returns the class name of an object.
• get_methods($obj) – Returns an array of all methods of an object.
• get_class_vars('ClassName') – Returns class properties.

Q2) ANY 3
1. Explain class and object with a suitable example in PHP.
Ans:
i. Class:
• A class is a template that defines attributes (variables) and behaviors (methods).
• It is created using the class keyword in PHP.
• Syntax: class class_name{
// attribute and behaviors
}
ii. Object:
• An object is an instance of a class.
• It is created using the new keyword.
• Syntax: $object_name = new class_name();
Example:
<html>
<body>
<?php
// Defining a class
class Car {
public $brand;
public $color;

// Constructor
public function __construct($brand, $color) {
$this->brand = $brand;
$this->color = $color;
}
public function displayInfo() {
echo "This car is a " . $this->color . " " . $this->brand . ".";
}
}

// Creating an object of the Car class


$myCar = new Car("Toyota", "Red");

// Calling the method


$myCar->displayInfo();
?>
</body>
</html>
2. Write the Difference between GET() and POST() method in PHP.

3. Define session and cookie. Explain the use of session_start().


i) Cookie
• A cookie is a small piece of data stored on the client’s browser.
• It is used to remember user information (like username, preferences, or session ID)
across visits.
• Cookies are set using the setcookie() function in PHP and are automatically sent with
every HTTP request to the server.
• Syntax: setcookie("username", "John", time() + 3600, "/"); // Expires in 1 hour
ii) What is a Session?
• A session is a way to store user data on the server.
• Unlike cookies, session data is not visible to users and is more secure.
• Each user gets a unique session ID, usually stored in a cookie called PHPSESSID.
Use of session_start()
• session_start() is a built-in PHP function used to start a session.
• It must be called at the beginning of the script before any HTML output.
• It enables the use of $_SESSION superglobal to store and retrieve session variables.
Example:
<?php
session_start(); // Starts the session
// Storing session data
$_SESSION["username"] = "JohnDoe";
?>
<html><body><?php
// Retrieving session data
echo "Welcome, " . $_SESSION["username"];
?>
</body>
</html>
4. Write a PHP program to demonstrate delete operation on table data.
<?php
// Step 1: Connect to MySQL Database
$servername = "localhost";
$username = "root";
$password = "";
$dbname = "stud";

// Create connection
$conn = new mysqli($servername, $username, $password, $dbname);

// Step 2: Check connection


if ($conn->connect_error) {
die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error);
}

// Step 3: DELETE query


$student_id = 1; // ID of the student to delete
$sql = "DELETE FROM students WHERE id = $student_id";

// Step 4: Execute query


if ($conn->query($sql) === TRUE) {
echo "Record deleted successfully.";
} else {
echo "Cannot deleted record”;
}

// Step 5: Close connection


$conn->close();
?>

O/P=>
Record deleted successfully.
