What is the difference between PHP and phpMyAdmin?


PHP, which stands for PHP hypertext preprocessor, is a program that runs on a server and creates dynamic webpages that have been programmed in the PHP programing language. For example, if you visit a page that ends in ‘.php’, the PHP program has generated that page. This is useful because thing like the current tie, or information from a database can be inserted into the page that you load. Youtube uses php, for example, because they need to give you a different video, and they need to display the title and related videos based on information in the database.

phpMyAdmin is a web application that ca be veiwed as a web page. It uses php. It allows the user to manage a mySQL database.

So php is a program and a programming language, whereas phpMyAdmin is a web application that manages a database.
