note 114069 added to function.return

You could use this in Functions: <?php function function_name($number){ $result = $number*2; return $result; } //Direct: echo function_name(3); //Or with a variable: $var = function_name(4); echo $var; ?> This will return and show on the screen number 6 and 8. Using return is much better, because you get the function as a variable, and you can easily use string functions. The way without return: <?php function function_name($number){ $result = $number*2; echo $result; } function_name(3); ?> ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 72.52.91.14 ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.return.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/114069 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114069/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114069/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114069/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114069/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114069/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114069/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/114069 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/114069 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
