What is PHP?
PHP is the scripting language that is designed
for web development. And it stands for
Hypertext Preprocessor. It is mainly used for
interactive and dynamic HTML Web pages.
It is free to use, and it is useful when you
compete with your competitors like Microsoft’s
ASP. PHP mainly supports Microsoft IIS,
Apache, etc. And it also supports some
operating systems like UNIX, Linux, Windows,
and Mac OS.

as PHP 2.0 by Zeev Suraski and Gutmans with a
new passer engine.
In 1998, PHP 3 version email protocols were
added, and it added support for Open
Database Connectivity and also supports
multiple platforms.
in 2000, PHP 4 version was released.
In 2004, released PHP 5 version, it adds Zend
Engine II with the robust XML support and

programming language, which is an ABC
programming language.
Nowadays, the core development team is
maintaining Python.

Features of
Python
There are so many features of Python some
of them are:

Easy To Code
As compared to other languages, Python is
very easy to learn. It is a high-level
programming language. It is a developer-
friendly language, and anybody can learn the
Python language in some days or in a few
hours.

available to the public because it is an open-
source language. So because of its open-
source, you can download it, use it and also
you can share it.

Object-Oriented
Language
The Python language also supports object-
oriented programming features. And also, it
supports object-oriented language, and it
supports concepts of classes, encapsulation,
object, etc.

GUI Programming
Support
By using the modules such as PyQt5, PyQt4,
wxPython, or Tk in Python Graphical User Interface
can be made.
And the module which is the most popular option
to create graphical apps with Python.

Conclusion
Now you are able to understand which
language is better for you. In this blog, we
have told you all about the PHP Vs Python.
