The power of a database is realized in the tools that use it. In Part
III, we talk about how you build those tools using a variety of
today's popular programming languages. From
web-based programming to business application development, we will
discuss the APIs and tools necessary for using MySQL to its fullest
potential. Part III starts with a high-level chapter on database
application design. The meat of Part III, however, deals with
programming in various programming languages with MySQL as your
backend database.
