In any case, it's evident to anyone reading the example that the functions "odd" and "even" return whether the input integer is odd or even. The only potentially reasonable change is to add a comment to each function indicating what it does. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-11-08 14:38:16] marco at palzkill dot de Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.array-filter#Examples --- Hi, the bitwise comparison with & in the callback function strikes me as too complicated for beginners to easily understand, and thus rendering the example sort of useless. I use PHP a lot and had to look up &. I would suggest to replace the return argument in the callback function with something that is easier to understand.
