How to design my php application using oop

Hello Community,

I am in the process of designing my football predictor web application where users will be able to bet games(win,draw or lose) and based on that bets users will gain points.

I am going to use MySql as a central storage database. I already prepare my database but I am not sure how to design oop model. I am thinking about three classes: Database, Application and User.

My question is how to correctly create classes in OOP, should every single table from database be a class?

Another question is how to store selected data from database in user session, arrays?

Thank you for your help.

Peter

If you haven't already I would check out this course https://teamtreehouse.com/library/objectoriented-php-basics-2 It's a full guide to basic object oriented programming using php. I would also check out https://teamtreehouse.com/library/php-user-authentication for information on passing user information and storing data. Hope that helps a little!
