1. Access global variables within the global function
<?<span>php </span><span>$x</span>=5<span>; </span><span>$y</span>=10<span>; </span><span>function</span><span> myTest() { </span><span>global</span> <span>$x</span>,<span>$y</span><span>; </span><span>$y</span>=<span>$x</span>+<span>$y</span><span>; } myTest(); </span><span>echo</span> <span>$y</span>; <span>//</span><span> 输出 15</span> ?>
If global is not used in the myTest function, it cannot be used
PHP stores all global variables in an array called $GLOBALS[index]. index saves the name of the variable. This array can be accessed inside the function or used directly to update global variables. Such as $GLOBALS['y']=$GLOBALS['x'] $GLOBALS['y']
2. Static When a function is completed, all its variables are usually deleted. However, sometimes you want a local variable not to be deleted.
function myTest() { static $x=0; echo $x; $x++; } myTest(); myTest(); myTest(); 0 1 2
Every time the function is called, the variable will retain the value when the function was called last time. The variable remains local to the function.
