Re: [PHP4BETA] [PHP4Beta] - reference question

By the way, I just want to add something to this mail. Unless you really intend to change the array within your function you should pass the array by value. There is no performance hit sending it by value. Andi At 06:53 AM 2/6/00 +0200, Andi Gutmans wrote:

Sure you can. function foo(&ar) {

        $ar[0] = 1;

} $arr = array(1,2,3); foo($arr); The & in the function declaration specifies that the argument is being passed by reference. Andi At 02:11 PM 2/5/00 -0800, Brett M. Delia wrote:

Just getting up and running on using PHP. I am currently using PHP4 and would like to know if you can pass arrays as reference variables to functions? Any help would be appreciated as I can't get a concrete answer from the online manual. Thanks, -- Brett M.
