An enumeration is a set of constant values, each of which is given a descriptive name.
Each value in an enumeration corresponds to a preset integer. In your code, however, you can refer to an enumerated value by name, which allows you to create more readable code and also simplify your coding experience.
Enumerations provide an alternative to the #define preprocessor directive with the advantages that the values can be generated for you and obey normal scoping rules.

In PHP, a variable’s datatype determines the values it may contain, plus the operations that may be performed upon it. for instance, It will make perfect sense to add variables whose values are numbers (2 + 3), but adding variables whose values are characters (x + y) wont make much sense.
PHP supports many different datatypes, but they are generally broken into three categories:
scalar, composite, and special.

What’s a Variable?
A variable is a symbolic representation of a value such as integer, string, or function result. But as its name suggest, it can change over time or vary so that it can be used many times within a script.
Variables in PHP
In PHP, variable names are going to start with a “$” sign, then they are going to be followed by a letter or an underscore “_”. A variable name is case-sensitive and can contain letters, numbers, underscores, or dashes (a-z, A-Z, 0-9, _, or -), but no spaces otherwise PHP will think that it is a new entity.

I’ve been thinking about preparing for the Zend Certification since last year but never took it very seriously until yesterday when I decided that it’s time for me to make room for it. It seems like I’m having less and less time every single new day and If I don’t commit myself to it, It will never happen. Blogging about this experience is much better. I believe that when you share you goals & objectives with somebody, you’re more likely to accomplish them. if not I will be, may be, helping others doing it. that’s why I’m inviting everybody to share their knowledge, experiences and advices.

When trying to open Firefox, I often get a pretty alarming sounding error message titled “Close Firefox”. The full error message is: “Firefox is already running, but is not responding. To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process or restart your system”.
I can’t find any Firefox process running in order to close it. What’s going on?
