ElePHPant7 - Introduction to PHP7
This document discusses upgrading from PHP 5 to PHP 7. It begins with an introduction and timeline of PHP versions. It then provides reasons to upgrade such as improved performance, new features like scalar type hints, and deprecated functions being removed. A checklist is provided covering removed functions like mysql_* and ereg* as well as removed ini directives. Upgrade recommendations suggest using frameworks for structure and security. Popular frameworks like Laravel, Symfony and CodeIgniter are mentioned. PDO is recommended over mysql_* for database connectivity.
