Hi, i've got a question again :
after my multiple researchs on the internet, i still don't understand the
difference between the call of a function with



function toto($argument1, $argument2, ...)
{
...
}





or with


function toto
{
param ( [string] $arguments1, [string] $arguments2)
...
}


Could someone explain it to me ?

Thanx
bye
Nico

No difference. Personal preference in style.

Although the param() approach is required to define the parameters for a
script file. The param statement also needs to be the first line of script
in the file IIRC.

But he also sets the type in the 2nd example, which he's not doing in
the first.

Nico:

Just so you know, you can do this too:

function toto([string]$argument1, [string]$argument2, ...)
{
...
}

Can you also define optional parameters this way too?
