Hi I'm a newbie and have been given this line of code as prt of a code snippet.
$file=$db->fetch_array($result);
However, I am confused by the -> between the variable $db and fetch_array() function
What is the meaning of ->
$db is an object (not a variable), and fetch_array() is a method belonging to the $db object. the -> is used to reference methods of objects.
there are some basic tutorials on the use of objects here in the manual.
