Each function or variable in a class can be called by using $this-> so your code would be

Code:
class Example extends Controller {

  function doingA($varA,$varB){

    $varA+$varB;

  }

  function doingB($varA,$varB){

        return $this->doingA($varA,$varB)+1;

  }

}

I don't know why you want to specify it to $varC. If you return the result of the doingB method you can use it for other purposes.

Same question here, with same answers + the 'private' trick.

well lets say sometimes some methods oftenly not as simplier as sum $varA & $varB.. or sometimes i just want to get some $data['part'] stuff.. thx xwero, i hvn't try it yet.. but it just a kind of answer that i expected.

@Grahack: thx, but my nerves getting tense up when reading 'library' stuff..>_<
