(PHP 4, PHP 5)
func_num_args — Returns the number of arguments passed to the function
Gets the number of arguments passed to the function.
This function may be used in conjunction with func_get_arg() and func_get_args() to allow user-defined functions to accept variable-length argument lists.
Returns the number of arguments passed into the current user-defined function.
Generates a warning if called from outside of a user-defined function.
Example#1 func_num_args() example
<?php
function foo()
{
$numargs = func_num_args();
echo "Number of arguments: $numargs\n";
}
foo(1, 2, 3); // Prints 'Number of arguments: 3'
?>
Note: Because this function depends on the current scope to determine parameter details, it cannot be used as a function parameter. If you must pass this value, assign the results to a variable, and pass the variable.
