roopurt18 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Are you trying to explain this to a friend or to a teacher? In any case, let's do this the Socratic way. Why would you drive a car from Los Angeles to San Diego as opposed to riding a bicycle? After all they both get you there, they're the same right?

resago Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 use classes if you are creating your own data structure, otherwise normal functions will do just fine. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/105346-why-use-classes/#findComment-539611 Share on other sites More sharing options...
