Re: [PHP] What's more effecient: var on every page or simple function?

2001-05-15 Thread Zef Hemel

I'd say the first one, but if you'd use $myvar as a constant only, try this:
define(MYVAR,3);
Might be even more efficient ;-)
btw. You can call this value like this:
echo MYVAR;

 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? (myvar is a constant #)
