<title>Exercise 09: Function with arguments</title> | |
</head> | |
<body> | |
<?php | |
// First, create a function to accept two arguments, perform a calculation | |
// using them, and then return a sentence with the result to the browser. | |
// The function will calculate the area of a rectangle, with the two | |
// arguments being width and height. The sentence to be returned is; | |
// "A rectangle of length $l and width $w has an area of $area." | |
// Where $l and $w are the arguments and $area is the result. | |
// Create function to calculate area | |
function area($l, $w) { | |
// Calculate the area | |
$area = $l * $w; | |
// Output the sentence replacing the variables where necessary | |
echo "A rectangle of length ".$l." and width ".$w." has an area of ".$area.".<br/>"; | |
}; | |
// Call the function with some values as an example | |
area(2,3); | |
area(4,5); | |
area(6,7); | |
