How can the user modify the PHP function to return multiple values from the API?
To return multiple values from the API in a PHP function, you can modify the function to return an array or an object containing all the values you want to retrieve. This way, you can easily access and use multiple values in your code by unpacking the array or object.
function getMultipleValuesFromAPI() {
// Make API request and retrieve multiple values
$value1 = 'Value 1';
$value2 = 'Value 2';
$value3 = 'Value 3';
// Return an array containing all the values
return array($value1, $value2, $value3);
}
// Call the function and retrieve multiple values
list($result1, $result2, $result3) = getMultipleValuesFromAPI();
echo $result1; // Output: Value 1
echo $result2; // Output: Value 2
echo $result3; // Output: Value 3
