PHP Namespaces

In this video you will learn about PHP namespaces. You will learn why the are useful and how to use them.

If you have a file located at App\Ninja\Weapon.php you will probably want to give it a namespace like the following:

<?php

namespace App\Ninja;

class Weapon {

}

Then, if you need to create a new instance of this Weapon class you can do so with the following:

<?php

use App\Ninja\Weapon;

$weapon = new Weapon;

PHP namespaces allow us to include classes in our project with the same name and it allows us to organize our code and classes better.
