Given the amount of work that exists around PHP-based web apps, and the fact that people can use basic PHP knowledge to connect with open source communities that offer resources that mot individual schools can never match, it seems like a no-brainer.
Is this just an oversight, or are there reasons for this?
And please, no "Language X is better for reason Y" responses - spaghetti/insecure code can be written in anything, and elegant code can be written in anything.
Cheers,
Bill

Subject:Programming
I was wondering if anyone had some ideas for teaching programming. In the
past I taught Basic and Pascal - but these are a little out of date. SO
because not programmed for a while is there a good resource to learn them
and WHICH should I start with C, C+?????
Thus far I have found "scratch" which is certainly good but maybe too
elementary.
Thank you in advance.
