Noobish question: Why unset a variable?
#6

[eluser]Michael Wales[/eluser]
Yes - variables will be automatically cleared from memory after script execution. It's much better to just let this happen - could you imagine how hideous your code would be if you unset() every variable at the end of the function - bleh...

Unsetting can be quite powerful though, I find myself usually using them when trying to remove unwanted values from an array (great when comparing two arrays).
