Call function from another function - El Forum - 04-01-2008

I have a small question.
I have 2 functions in 1 controller
Say Function A and Function B
Is it possible to call function B at the end of Function A?
If so, how is this done?
I know i can call a view but i don't want a view at the end of function A

If the second function is an action with its own view you could redirect to that action
Code:
redirect('controller/functionb');Or if the function is just some controller logic you can call the method using:
Code:
$this->function_b();Call function from another function - El Forum - 04-01-2008

No problem,
Also if the method is just controller logic then put an underscore before the function name so that it can't be accessed from a URL e.g. http://website/controller/function_b
Code:
$this->_function_b();This "http://website/controller/function_b" will no longer work.

is it also possible to send variables from function a to function b?
Because i want something like this(this is just an example):
Code:
Function_a(){
$foo = "1";
$this->_function_b($foo);
}
Function_b(){
if($foo){
echo $foo+1;
}else{
$foo = "10";
echo $foo;
}
