[Year 12 SofDev] Records in PHP

[David Dawson]

I am not sure of what the text says ( I use the other book :) but records per se are not basic data types.
In PHP you can use a CSV file to store records and then process these using a simple array where the array position is a "field" and every element is initially a string.

This is my first time teaching SD. We’re using PHP and the Fitzpatrick/Keane text. PHP doesn’t have a specific type called a “record” and a single vector array doesn’t seem to match the concept as illustrated (fig 6.5, page 162). Looking at the example in the text I’m wondering if I could describe it as an instance of a class?
