Join author Jon Peck as he demonstrates new functionality in PHP 5.5, including generators, the try-catch-finally execution model, and a brand-new password hashing API. A number of existing behaviors, such as the foreach() and empty() functions, have also been updated, and Jon explores what changed and how it can be used. Throughout this course, you'll learn to add new functionality to a simple deck of cards class using these new and updated features, and how to use them for the basis of your own project.
Topics include:

-Using generators to create simple iterators
-Dereferencing strings and arrays
-Enhancing security with the password hashing API
-Replacing APC with OPcache
-Normalizing Boolean and unpack() behavior
-Surveying the removed, incompatible, and deprecated functionality
