Awesome Link(s)

Post by Chalks »

I came across a neat Google tool a few months ago, and thought that I'd share it with you guys.

Google Codesearch (the advanced search is best) is something that I've used many times to find the syntax for functions that I'm unfamiliar with. Of course, the php manual is helpful, but seeing an actual example of a function is sometimes much more so. It's also fun to see the way other people code too.




Edit: I searched the forum for this before I posted, and didn't find anything. However, I didn't think to search for an "awesome links" topic... If the latter doesn't exist anywhere I nominate this thread. :)

Dude, you're right, that search is totally sweet. I've always thought that I should read more code and this is a perfect way for me to read other people's solutions to similar problems etc.
