You cannot modify an array during iteration.

for($i = 0; $i < count($array); $i++) { /* ... * / }

foreach($array as $key => &$val) { /* ... * / }

13.Consider the following table data and PHP code. What is the outcome? Table data (table name "users" with primary key "id"): id name email ------- ----------- ------------------- 1 anna [email protected] 2 betty [email protected] 3 clara [email protected] 5 sue [email protected] PHP code (assume the PDO connection is correctly established): $dsn = 'mysql:host=localhost;dbname=exam'; $user = 'username'; $pass = '********'; $pdo = new PDO($dsn, $user, $pass); $cmd = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE id = :id"; $stmt = $pdo->prepare($cmd); $id = 3; $stmt->bindParam('id', $id); $stmt->execute(); $stmt->bindColumn(3, $result); $row = $stmt->fetch(PDO::FETCH_BOUND);

The database will return no rows.

The value of $row will be an array.

The value of $result will be empty.

The value of $result will be '[email protected]'.

14.Transactions are used to...

guarantee high performance

secure data consistency

secure access to the database

reduce the database server overhead

reduce code size in PHP

15.What is the difference between the ``include`` and ``require`` language constructs?

Require constructs can't be used with URL filenames

Include constructs cause a fatal error if the file doesn't exist

There is no difference other than the name

Include constructs are processed at run time; require constructs are processed at compile time

Require constructs cause a fatal error if the file can't be read

16.When checking to see if two variables contain the same instance of an object, which of the following comparisons should be used?

if($obj1 === $obj2)

17.What is wrong with the following code? function duplicate($obj) { $newObj = $obj; return $newObj; } $a = new MyClass(); $a_copy = duplicate($a); $a->setValue(10); $a_copy->setValue(20);

You must use return &$newObj instead

There is nothing wrong with this code

duplicate() must accept its parameter by reference

You must use the clone operator to make a copy of an object

duplicate() must return a reference

18.What is the primary difference between a method declared as static and a normal method?

Static methods can only be called using the :: syntax and never from an instance

Static methods do not provide a reference to $this

Static methods cannot be called from within class instances

Static methods don't have access to the self keyword

There is no functional difference between a static and non-static method

final

protected

incomplete

abstract

implements

20.Type-hinting and the instanceof keyword can be used to check what types of things about variables?

$msg{$i}

ord($msg);

chr($msg);

substr($msg, $i, 2);

24.Given the two values below, which of the following possibilities will print 10 foos20 bars? $var1 = "10 foos"; $var2 = "20 bars"; print ???????;

implode("", array($var1,$var2));

$var1 . $var2

$var1 + $var2

All of the above

None of the above

25.Identify the best approach to compare two variables in a binary-safe fashion

Both strcmp() and $a === $b

$a == $b

$a === $b

str_compare()

strstr()

26.Consider the following script: $oranges = 10; $apples = 5; $string = "I have %d apples and %d oranges"; ??????? What could be placed in place of ?????? to output the string: "I have 5 apples and 10 oranges"

str_format($string, $apples, $oranges);

print($string, $apples, $oranges);

printf($string, $apples, $oranges);

print sprintf($apples, $oranges);

sprintf($string, $oranges, $apples);

27.If you would like to store your session in the database, you would do which of the following?

It requires a custom PHP extension to change the session handler

29.During an HTTP authentication, how does one determine the username and password provided by the browser?

Parse the HTTP headers manually using http_get_headers()

Use the get_http_username() and get_http_password() functions

Use the $_SERVER['HTTP_USER'] and $_SERVER['HTTP_PASSWORD'] variables

Use the $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] and $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'] variables

Parse the $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] variable

30.One can ensure that headers can always be sent from a PHP script by doing what?

Enable header buffering in PHP 5

Set the header.force INI directive to true

Enable output buffering in PHP 5

There is no way to ensure that headers can always be set, they must always be checked
