I have some database unrelated functions which I access frequently.
So I need a advice to place them in the codeigniter libray.
Model directory is for database related functions. So I think it is a bad choice for locating database unrelated functions.
libraries, helpers or another..
which directory is the best for MVC structure.
thanks...

Group related functions into a library, anything left over can simply go into a helper.

with 'group related' what you mean?

"Group" as a verb and "related" as an adjective. It DOES sound confusing what I said so here's another version:
Take all your functions that are directly related to each other, and put them in a library.
Put the rest of your functions in helper files.

Now I got it clearly.
My functions are on their way to helpers.
And also thanks for the grammar
