This particular request was in DocBook V5.1 (http://www.docbook.org/tdg51/en/html/group.methodparam.html) I don't think that this is officially released yet. So, for the time being, 2 prototypes is the most accurate way that can be used to describe the arguments. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2011-05-16 16:05:33] gwarnants at gmail dot com Description: ------------ --- From manual page: http://www.php.net/function.rand#Description --- Current prototype of rand() function is : int rand ( void ) int rand ( int $min , int $max ) I think it should be better to write a single prototype indicating optional parameters like this : int rand ( [int $min, int $max] ) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=54746&edit=1
