PHP (Hypertext Preprocessor), which simply stood for Personal Home Page back in its infancy, is a power language used widely on the web to design websites. PHP is a backend language used to interact with the server or do calculations, etc. This is all done before the user sees the finished web page.
Anyone who has knowledge of any programming language can easily adapt to PHP. It is logical and in my experience, if there is something you think it should be able to do, it generally can. One awesome factor of PHP that many beginners take advantage of is the ability to include a single pre-written page into many different php pages, making a template type design possible server side, so no repeating common aspects across your website. But this is a very small part of PHP, and as many would know possible in other languages, SSI is not a PHP only ability, although in my opinion much easier to do in PHP.
