Everything is in the documentation.
https://codeigniter.com/user_guide/libraries/sessions.html

set_userdata is for adding session data.
set_flashdata is for adding session data that will only be available for the next request, and is then automatically cleared.

Better take the time to read the documentation first before asking someone.

His question is written in perfect English, so I don't think that is the problem here...

@freddy

If understanding english is the problem.
This is what I do I bought English to Filipino dictionary (my local language).
Hence I understood deep meaning words from english.

By the way I tried android dictionary app but not worth it.
It's better to buy the thick book from your local bookstore.
