running the same code over and over

bobbee · November 17, 2006 3:38 am

Hi! Thaks for the help on my other issue, now I've got another question.

Is there a way to run the same lines of code over and over without typing it or copying / pasting it over and over on my page?

What you're looking for is called a function.

ex.

function my_function ( $var1, $var2 ) {
  $sum = $var1 + $var2;

  return ($sum)
};

You can call it like this:

$a = 5;
$b = 10;

$the_sum = my_function ($a, $b) ## The sum = 15
