Php Sql num rows

This tutorial illustrates how to find number of rows of the table.
In this example, we have created a num_rows.php file in which we executed a query
to find the number of rows in the table. We created a connection from database
table using mysql_connect("hostName", "userName",
"Password"). After the connection created we choose database by
mysql_select_db("databaseName", connectionObject) and executed the
query by mysql_query("SELECT * FROM tableName"). The number of rows
are returned by the mysql_num_rows() method.
Table:emp

Source Code of num_rows.php
<?php
$link = mysql_connect("localhost", "root", "root");
mysql_select_db("test", $link);
$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM emp", $link);
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($result);
echo "<b>$num_rows Rows Found</b>";
?>
