I used to write PHP 10 years ago. For the last few years I’ve been much more into the C variant languages and Perl. Any recommendations for books or resources that seem particularly well geared towards the transition from Perl to PHP?
EDIT: It turns out this has already been answered here, I just didn’t see it in my search.
When I learn a new language, I try to pretend that I don’t know other languages so I can learn the new one on its own terms. Don’t try to write Perl or C in PHP. Get back into PHP without all the baggage of what you already know.
There is already an answer for What are good references for Perl programmers who want to learn PHP?, too.
