Hi Larry,
I am loving the book, as I work towards converting lots of Classic ASP to PHP 7.
I have in the past created hundreds of Stored Procedures in MSSQL. One thing that has bugged me in the past was that I found it hard to search for variables, etc., in the Stored Procedures when I changed something.
In addition to liking the fact that they will be in my (easily searchable) code, I like the security and performance perks of using Prepared Statements as I translate these Stored Procedures... but I am wondering:
Would Stored Procedures or Stored Functions be faster than Prepared Statements?
Again, thank you for making such an excellent book - it's really helping me get up to the next level in my coding abilities.
Thanks,
Jim
