<?php
// Simple array functions for beginners

// 1. Create an array
$numbers = array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);

// 2. Sum of array elements


echo "Sum: " . array_sum($numbers) . "<br>";

// 3. Maximum value in array


echo "Maximum: " . max($numbers) . "<br>";

// 4. Sorting array in ascending order


sort($numbers);
echo "Sorted Asc: " . implode(", ", $numbers) . "<br>";

// 5. Reversing the array


$reversed = array_reverse($numbers);
echo "Reversed: " . implode(", ", $reversed) . "<br>";
?>

Output:

Sum: 15
Maximum: 5
Sorted Asc: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
Reversed: 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

2. User Defined Functions


PHP Code:

<?php
// User defined function to add two numbers
function add($a, $b) {
return $a + $b;
}

// Using the function


echo "Sum of 10 and 20: " . add(10, 20) . "<br>";

// Function to find square of a number


function square($n) {
return $n * $n;
}

echo "Square of 5: " . square(5) . "<br>";


?>

Output:

Sum of 10 and 20: 30


Square of 5: 25

3. Factorial of a Number
PHP Code:

<?php
// Function to calculate factorial
function factorial($n) {
if ($n == 0) return 1;
else return $n * factorial($n - 1);
}
// Calculate factorial of 5
echo "Factorial of 5: " . factorial(5) . "<br>";
?>

Output:

Factorial of 5: 120

4. File Manipulation
PHP Code:

<?php
// Creating a simple text file and writing data to it
$file = fopen("testfile.txt", "w");
fwrite($file, "Hello, this is a test file.");
fclose($file);

// Reading the file and displaying the contents


$file = fopen("testfile.txt", "r");
echo "File Contents: " . fread($file, filesize("testfile.txt"));
fclose($file);
?>

Output:

File Contents: Hello, this is a test file.

5. Session
