Is it possible for a function to return two values?

Question

Is it possible for a function to return two values? Array is possible if the two values are both the same type, but how do you return two different type values?

Answer 1

All of the possible solutions miss one major point; why do you want to return two values from a method? The way I see it, there are two possible cases; a) you are returning two values that really should be encapsulated in one object (e.g. height and width of something, so you should return an object that represents that something) or b) this is a code smell and you really need to think about why the method is returning two values (e.g. the method is really doing two things).
