Hello:

When I need a function to generate a string, I have two methods:

1.
pass by reference:

mystring = "";
myfunction( mystring ); // prototype of myfunction( &anystring );

OR 2.
mystring = myfunction(); //which return a string

According to experience of C/C++, the former one is better as of the
efficient, how about PHP?

Thanks.
