Which of the two is more efficient: # start of file.php $myvar = 3; # end file.php #start of file.php function myvar() { return 3; } #end file.php the difference between the two is the first example would set the variable on every page regardless of whether it was used whereas with the function obviously it would be used only if it were called. what's better?
