You can define an argument as a reference type in the function definition. This will automatically convert the calling arguments into references. Here is a PHP script on how to define an argument as a reference type:
<?php function ref_swap(&$a, &$b) { $t = $a; $a = $b; $b = $t; } $x = "PHP"; $y = "JSP"; print("Before swapping: $x, $y\n"); ref_swap($x, $y); print("After swapping: $x, $y\n"); ?>
This script will print:
Before swapping: PHP, JSP After swapping: JSP, PHP
