PHP call Class method / function

Question

How can I call following Class method or function?

Let say I have this params get from url:

$var = filter($_GET[\'params\']);

Answer 1

Within the class you can call function by using :

 $this->filter();

Outside of the class

you have to create an object of a class

 ex: $obj = new Functions();

     $obj->filter($param);    

for more about OOPs in php

this example:

class test {
 public function newTest(){
      $this->bigTest();// we don't need to create an object we can call simply using $this
      $this->smallTest();
 }

 private function bigTest(){
      //Big Test Here
 }

 private function smallTest(){
      //Small Test Here
 }

 public function scoreTest(){
      //Scoring code here;
 }
}

$testObject = new test();

$testObject->newTest();

$testObject->scoreTest();

hope it will help!
