Again, coming from ASP background, I'm trying to minimize the typing
for most needed functionalities..
in asp, to set a session var, you go <%session("age")=90%> and to
output it, you just go <%=session("age")%>
in php, you've got to _SESSION['age']=90. that's a lot of keyboarding,
lots of double key strokes and the entire word session has to be
uppercase.
of course, if you use an IDE and you get fast at it, this may not be
an issue but I wanted to simplify it anyway.
so the plan is this
<?php
_s("age",43) //set the session var age to 43
echo _s("age") //outputs the value
?>
To achieve this; I wrote this preliminary function;
function _s($var,$val = "r4r53d323,9e809023890j832e@14fdsffdd")
{
if ($val == "r4r53d323,9e809023890j832e@14fdsffdd")
{return $_SESSION[$var];}
else
{$_SESSION[$var] = $val;}
}
Now, what's that number you ask!... it's just a value which I figured
I would never end up in a real app.
It's just a way for me to use default argument of the function so I
can call _s function with 1 or 2 arguments.
Can this be done a better way? How do you use _s function with 1 or 2
arguments so in 1 arg mode, you can use it as a set, and in 2 arg
mode, you use it as a way to return val.
Is func_get_args route the only way? performance wise which one would better?
