  Difference between localhost and 127.0.0.1

Lots of people would think what the address 127.0.0.1 is when first seeing this address. In fact, 127.0.0.1 is a loopback address which refers to the local machine. It is generally used for local testing. When typing ping 127.0.0.1 on local command console, it will send network packets to local IP/TCP layer to test whether IP/TCP works properly or not.  To those who are used to use localhost, it is actually mapped to 127.0.0.1 by default. There are hosts files in the system which store this...

We no need to rely on wget,nc to do network connection. It's very easy to use this interface: bash-4.2$ cat </dev/tcp/time.nist.gov/13 56188 12-09-18 15:34:26 50 0 0 733.5 UTC(NIST) * bash-4.2$ exec 3<>/dev/tcp/www.w3.org/80 bash-4.2$ echo -e "GET / HTTP/1.0\n\n" >&3 b...

  Understanding GoLang interface

If goroutine and channel are considered as the foundation for GoLang concurrency, interface would be the key for data types in GoLang. In practical Go programming, almost all data types are built/used around interfaces, interface is the core of GoLang data structures. Go is not a typical OOP language, it has no class and inheritance concept syntactically. But it doesn't mean that there cannot be polymorphism in GoLang. Because of interface, it achieves the same polymorphism effect as in C++, tho...

When session extension is loaded, PHP will call core functions to get the session save_handler, i.e interface or functions for reading and writing session data.
