Solve : MYSQL??

1.	Solve : MYSQL??
Answer» what is this MYSQL? it sounds like it has some interesting features. I googled it and got mysql 5.0 and stuff. do i need to download something? where should i learn this from?It's an implementation of a SQL database. When you have a WEBSITE that NEEDS to dynamically save and retrieve data you often have a SQL database to store the data in. This very forum for example is stored in a MySQL database. Software that needs to handle lots of data or need to share data between many users usually utilizes some form of database as well (often SQL). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Database_management_system I don't know any good online tutorials but there PROBABLY are some around. I can recommend a book THOUGH. "Fundamentals of Database Systems"There's some good tutorials on phpbuilder.net - http://www.phpbuilder.net/columns/index.php3?cat=1&subcat=2 http://www.phpbuilder.net/columns/index.php3?cat=1&subcat=28 If you WANT to play with mysql and php, download and install xampp from www.apachefriends.org If you want mysql by itself, to play around with the interface, download it from dev.mysql.com/downloads
