No. But it is possible to get similar results.
a) Return an array
$result = myfunction($a, $b);
echo $result['e'];
echo $result['f'];
function myfunction($c, $d) {
do
something
$result['e'] = $this_is_e;
$result['f'] = $this_is_f;
return $result;
}
b) Use references
myfunction($c, $d, $e, $f);
echo $e;
echo $f;
function myfunction($c, $d, &$e, &$f) {
do
something
$e = $this_is_e;
$f = $this_is_f;
}
