You know only php and you dont even know it well self. Make we bet i go pull out about 5-10 problems in your library and you pay me 5k.

Let me clearly state here. Learning a programming language does not make you a programmer. Programming is like maths. You can learn the syntax of any language within weeks. programming languages are like 10-30% syntax, the rest is the stuff you learn from other languages. A really good programmer should be embrace a new language within weeks. if you cant, then examine yourself ohhhhh.

I am sorry, this does not work in programming. For example, if you are an expert in JAVA, that does not automatically give you an expertise in JAVASCRIPT.
It is true that I can read codes of languages like C#, Cold fusion, Actionscript because i write codes in related languages. But that does not give me the right to criticize codes written in those languages anyhow. . .
OLODO. You just f**ked up BIG.
Its the same dude. Is that not why abstraction was invented and everybody is embracing OOP.
You should try not to call yourself a programmer. very shameful.

Your statement is wrong.
He meant that programming is like driving, a good driver can drive almost anycar after doing through the manual.
You are deserving of you name i ++ you username.
In fact am in a cheerful mood seems you have a lot of sense @guru01 so am going to do this specially for you.
Code below:
data="guru01"
nameArray=data.split("0"wink
nameIncr=int(nameArray[1])
for i in range(1000):
nameIncr=nameIncr+i
newname=nameArray[0]+str(nameIncr)

If you can tell me the language, just go and meet seun and tell him to change your username to newname.
If he asks you why tell him na seunthomas send you.

GodMode:
Then your programming is null.....

Every programmer has a language they specialize in.......
when a programmer says "lot of other languages" then that programmer is void....
Error 400 embarassed
Lot of languages does not mean void ohh. I actually developed my own pattern of writing these languages. Like for example when i create constructor in php OOP i dont do public function __construct() like bros dhtml. This wont work in < php5. Infact i totally disagree with this statement, the best programmers are those that have been able to master more than one language at time and in many cases developed their own pattern.
namespace in c# and c++ is like package names in java and even modern php is heading in that direction.

BTW: I am rather surprised you actually understand what a "singleton pattern" is, so i hereby increase my opinion of you to 69% (you are close to 70%).

@seunthomas: a true warrior knows when he has been defeated (accept defeat in good faith, i don't have to clean the floor with you all over again now).
Other than that, i actually have codes to write, and money to make. This library+argument will not fetch me NGN 1.00.
At this juncture, I take the 4th amendment and hereby honorably rest my case (since my point has been made).


To be continued. . . . .watch out for part 2
Dreamer like you. You cant defeat me na. I dey use play. He get one code wey dey trouble. Am kinda using this to clear the very hot steamy engine. I still insists that your "wrapper" is a death trap and would probably lead to lots of memory leaks. The connections you are trying to reuse is actually not happening. Everytime your page is called, when your condition fails, the connection will still be recreated. Mind you regular php has a very bad memory management compared to languages like Java and .Net with garbage collection. I can bet you using your wrapper and using normal php mysqli, i stand a change of having more database connections than with regular mysqli. From the way i see the code, you probably copied some of it. Lacks consistency or maybe you are just a very disconnected programmer??

You just know how to use big grammar. I like the way you use singleton pattern in your library but you seem to confuse it. Go and check 415 and 417 breaking a very big rule of oop. Anyway am not after your shine. Rather than insult me, you can either go and fix you very poor code or scrap it for something more efficient.

So by your own admission, you don't even understand PHP code and yet you come here with all this your big-boi stuffs? Shaking my head for you (It is because of people like you that our programming sector in naija is actually backward).

You have nothing, zip, zero of importance in your github, so stop making mouth anyhow. Real programmers have github account these days with a few useful things for the community to consume. You have no excuse for that.

Even now, international companies use it as part of their assessment of a programmer, alongside with your blog or whatever it is that you publish online. If you do not know these things that I am saying, then you are a learner and a NOOB (at the same time).
I am a GURU in php,java,objective c,swift,c#,c++/c,python,ruby,perl,erlang cant remember the rest. Point of correction, its because of people like you that our programming sector is backward. You feel you know ohhh. I wish you really knew me ohhh. You go fear. But if you are ready to humble yourself and stop this fighting maybe we can exchange contact.

The thing is that I truly doubt if some people on this thread have enough brains to understand what this stuff is really about, contrary to their big talks.
A person can look at a code and not really understand what it does, or how it does what it does - their is that in programming. It takes a programmer with real brains to truly understand my codes even with all the documentations.
So seunthomas, i truly understand your pains, but unfortunately, I cannot help you. So my strong advice to you is that you do not use this library - use the better ones you know of or better still, build your own.

Saying a wrapper is trying to re-invent the wheel means that you truly do not understand what you say. jQuery is trying to re-invent the wheel too because it is still javaScript in your own words right?

#My respect for you has dropped by 99% by this your very interesting statement. I know you are trying to simply act annoying/jealous as usual, but you have done it in a way that actually makes you look like a learner (i still believe you have more brains than this, but i might be wrong).

Before you start any e-fight, please post the link to your github make we inspect am to see your contributions to the open-source world. But if you dont/cannot, then you have no right to criticize or even comment on this thread (so says i).
The 1% respect is still very adequate, with me the odds are always in my favour. grin Just read between the lines of your jquery statement. Please note jQuery is not even a wrapper around javascript. Its actually an extension of the general javascript dialect or best still a framework for javascript.

No be fight matter. It was constructive criticism. I am sure you dont like that. Anyway we are no way in the same league. I dont need to post any github url cos we no dey the same level na. I intended it as constructive anyway. And for your info, i dont do php stuff. I do stuff you day dream about (highly scalable applications). I got here by allowing people criticize me.

Use a framework. It has experience behind it, the more popular the community the better for you. It does not make sense to be fighting "maximum connection errors","Mysql has gone away" errors when we have very good frameworks that would do it more efficiently under heavyload.

You are a looking at An advanced, compact and lightweight MySQL database wrapper library, built around PHP's mysqli extension.
It provides methods for interacting with MySQL databases that are more powerful and intuitive than PHP’s default ones.

Features
* It uses the mysqli extension for communicating with the database instead of the old mysql extension, which is officially deprecated as of PHP v5.5.0 and will be removed in the future; again, this is not a wrapper for the PDO extension which is already a wrapper in itself
* It offers lots of powerful methods for easier interaction with MySQL
* It provides a better security layer by encouraging the use of prepared statements, where parameters are automatically escaped.
* It has comprehensive documentation and examples of usage included
* It allows easy ways of backing up and restoring your database.

Installation and Usage
View project on github https://github.com/dhtml/dhtmlsql
Download the archive from https://github.com/dhtml/dhtmlsql/archive/master.zip (plenty sample codes inside)
It is also available on composer - https://packagist.org/packages/dhtml/dhtmlsql
Full document available on - http://dhtml.github.com/dhtmlsql

** Note: the source code is heavily documented.

Connect to a database



SELECT statement


INSERT statement


An UPDATE statement



For full documentation - http://dhtml.github.com/dhtmlsql
Bro sorry to say you have a very non descriptive name for your library. The name dhtmlsql is very misleading. Also i dont see any improvement in what you have made, what real problems has this new library solved? Its not an ORM and i have checked your code, its not as efficient as some similar libraries. Though i know this is a work in progress,it makes more sense to solve problems people actually face than trying to reinvent the wheel rather poorly. grin
ProgrammingRe: How Facebook Manages It Users Database by seunthomas: 7:07pm On Jan 21, 2016

NoSql. Google it.
Facebook like most Scale companies, use a number of tools. From what i consider accurate information, Facebook has been using mysql for long. Although they use several different languages and database for different parts of the application. Timeline uses a nosql database(in house developed tool) which they opensourced sometime back. In large companies, expect to see many different databases and programming languages. I also think most modern database can do 100 million easy(open source and propietary), you would need to set up a cluster of database servers to handle that workload though.
RomanceRe: My Fiancee Is Having A Crush On Another Guy. by seunthomas: 10:30am On Jan 19, 2016
I would recommend you go and pay a visit in school before deciding. Its easier to fall in love with someone you see daily and fall out of love with someone you dont see regularly. If you still love her, all hope is not lost. You need to reassure her. Women need that. You need to tell her its ok. The most important thing in any relationship is communication. The reason why you guys have issue now is that at one point in time you stopped communicating properly. Find out when it was and try to retrace yourself back. Except she was deceiving you from the start, then you would be doomed. But if at any point she actually loved you, you need to bring back that good old communication. Go and visit her in school and please take along a romantic gift. Contact me directly for any more advice.
ProgrammingRe: Any Huge Differences Between Objective-c And Regular C? by seunthomas: 4:51pm On Jan 18, 2016
objective c is closer to c++ than c. Although you can write objective c like c just like you can write c++ like c. objective c is also closer to the hardware and highly optimized and just like c++ it has high level libraries but like c++ you can decide to get dirty and use the c like part.
Christianity EtcRe: Pastor Adeboye: A Prophet Or An Imposter - Sahara Reporters by seunthomas: 12:45pm On Jan 18, 2016
Of all the men of God in Nigeria, Pastor Adeboye i can vouch for. I don't attend RCCG but have studied this man very well. He is an embodiment of my own perception of Christ(humility). As for your statement on prophesy, a prophesy in many cases is a vision from God and sometimes our frail minds may not be able to understand or interprete it correctly. That a prophesy does not happen or come through does not mean that the prophet is not a "real prophet" or did not hear from God. We need to be careful though about our statements towards men of God. Except you receive and undoubting conviction that a man of God is not from God, you should be careful not to speak against them, cause by so doing you speak against God. Their are obvious signs to watch out for in any proclaimed man of God. One of the most important is Humility(The kind that cant be faked). If a man has reached a very high height in service to God and does not have this humility, then something is very wrong somewhere. There are many examples of men of God at the height of service who dont have this humility. I wont name names.

Also, social is the bread and butter of any software you build today. Mostly because social brings engagement and retention. When you create that fantastic application you need social media to bring the users that would make your effort worth it.

If after you leave your laptop for some hours you become normal and the headaches disappear, i welcome you to the programming world. Its normal to have headaches after a long period of sitting in front of a system(most especially when you are working). You would be surprised that you wont have headaches if you spent 10 hours chatting with a friend or browsing leisurely. I recommend taking walks during the evening(That worked for me) to clear your mind. It may become habitual. Also its not a bad idea to reward Mr You, after successfully solving some really difficult task. Its very normal so you are not alone. Ignore those who claim its a health related problem. A lot of programmers do have this(Not all).
ProgrammingRe: Pls I Need House Advice by seunthomas: 9:26am On Dec 15, 2015
If you are very passionate about getting into programming, then its not to late. But if you are like most people who develop an interest solely for the benefits or gains in programming(which is most people), then it maybe too late. I recommend a career in consulting though(You dont need to code to be in ICT, just ensure you have a very sound knowledge of most aspects of IT). Its always best starting programming at a young age. The brain is more receptive at that stage. As you grow older attention span towards abstract stuff reduces drastically. Its possible to achieve this but i can promise it wont be a very easy task. Best of luck and hope you succeed in this endeavour.

Also change this line
