Crash course in php programming and how to build module in Drupal.

I will give a quick introduction to fundamentals of php programming. Moving on to examples of how to use drupal hooks and tap into power of Drupal.

I will demonstrate examples of code and explain every step of the way. Starting with what are arrays, functions and what is the life span of a variable. What are functions some examples of php functions and some examples of Drupal's functions. How to look in to those variables at every step of the way so that you understand how a variable reach its destination.
