look below code:
$myvar = array();
first();
function first()
{
global $myvar;
$array(apple, banana, orange);
}
second();
function second()
{
global $myvar;
print_r($array);
}
then in output, second function doesnt show up array... =/ i dont get how function get variable array from other function...
Two things
$myvar is not used anywhere in your functions;
you should learn how to add element in declared array.
function first()
{
global $myvar;
$myvar=array('apple','banana','orange');
}
$line where it is come from?You are not setting variable $array anywhere.
Dont use global variables just because you are lazy. Use return values and function parameters instead
function first () { return array('apple','banana', 'orange'); }
function second ($param) { print_r($param); }
$fruit = first();
second($fruit);
You're asking for the variable $myvar in the global $myvar; line, but then you are trying to use a variable called $array.
Try using the lines:
$myvar = array('apple','banana','orange');
and
print_r($myvar);
$array isn't in the scope of function 2.
i thing the right code it look like this:
$myvar = array();
first();
second();
function first(){
global $myvar;
array_push($myvar, 'apple', 'banana', 'orange');
}
function second(){
global $myvar;
print_r($myvar);
}
array_push add new items to the array.
Try this with using a class instead of two functions with one global variable:
class functions {
$myvar = array();
function first(){
$this->myvar = array('apple', 'banana', 'orange');
}
function second(){
print_r($this->myvar);
}
}
$fn = new functions();
$fn->first();
$fn->second();
It is not a good idea to use global vars (as you did in your question).
