Can PHP be performant for advanced computer science and algorithms? Yes, it can! And it's a lot easier and more fun than you might expect due to some unique data structures. A data structure is a way to organize data, and using the proper data structure for each job can make a massive difference in performance. This session will introduce some Standard PHP Library (SPL) data structures you may not have used before and where they come in handy. We'll also look into tools for testing performance to find bottlenecks and evaluate the best way to address a challenge. Jump into a heap of fun as we explore data structures, performance and algorithms in PHP.
