PHP Polymorphic Thoughts Primer Tutorial
We have mentioned the word “polymorphic” at this blog … and we weren’t sneezing m’lord … and you may wonder with the avid PHP fan base here why we don’t talk about “polymorphism” regarding PHP?
Or maybe not … but if you are still here … it is because PHP does not worry about the type of a variable in its function (or class’s method) parameter list … why should it? … it is sooooo generous … but seriously … you either like this, as you go through the world of programming and coding, or not … happens that I love it … because I like substitution and interpretation … but maybe you don’t … anyway … the cute “polymorphic” strengths of other OOP languages such as C++ (refer to Xcode Objective-C Polymorphic Array Primer Tutorial) is compensated, in a kludgy way, admittedly, with PHP, via the use of the family of functions like …
- is_callable() (or function_exists() or method_exists())
- is_numeric()
- is_string()
- is_array()
- is_bool()
The beauty and elegance of C++ about this is to be admired, but the brevity of PHP is also admirable, as one function, admittedly a long function/method can handle the whole shebang, given the right shebang’er, that it … just feel like saying “suffering succotash”.
Anyway, try out a live run or see the PHP source code you could call add.php (for which this link was great help … thanks).
Hope you get a little bit of an inkling of a notion out of today’s thoughts.

Have you heard of Objective-C? It is a great object-oriented programming language that builds that object orientation on top of a C programming base. Sounds good (even better than good), and Objective-C is the language of iOS Mobile Apps, so it is definitely in the category of up and coming programming languages. Let’s see what Wikipedia says about it below.
Objective-C is a general-purpose, object-oriented programming language that adds Smalltalk-style messaging to the C programming language. It is the main programming language used by Apple for the OS X and iOS operating systems and their respective APIs, Cocoa and Cocoa Touch.
Originally developed in the early 1980s, it was selected as the main language used by NeXT for its NeXTSTEP operating system, from which OS X and iOS are derived.[1] Generic Objective-C programs that do not use the Cocoa or Cocoa Touch libraries, or using parts that is ported or reimplemented for other systems can also be compiled for any system supported by GCC or Clang.
In this primer tutorial we see how Xcode can supervise an Objective-C Desktop Application project to define a Polymorphic Array, and call the methods this array points to.

Here is a tutorial that introduces you to some more aspects of OOP … oops, forgot to say what OOP stands for … Object Oriented Programming … specifically regarding Polymorphic Arrays.
Object-oriented programming (OOP) is a programming paradigm that represents concepts as “objects” that have data fields (attributes that describe the object) and associated procedures known as methods. Objects, which are usually instances of classes, are used to interact with one another to design applications and computer programs.
To me, the beauty of OOP is that it can relate to the nouns in our life. Think of an object that you can touch, like a wristwatch … it has features like its type of design, its size, its weight (ie. its properties), and it has objects that go to make it up, like cogs and wheels (ie. its components), and it has its related classes of objects like clock, alarm clock, oven timer etcetera (ie. its characteristics), and its more fundamental essence, the class of watch (ie. its inheritance).
In this tutorial we touch on Polymorphic Arrays and the use of an Abstract Base Class and Two Subclasses which contribute to the types within this array. Has some similarities to MultiCulturalism perhaps?
Let’s see some C++ using XCode for this …
