Hi there,

Why is it that if I try to evaluate an index of an array returned by a
function immediately, a syntax error is produced? (unexpected '[',
expecting ',' or ';')


thats hillarious, i literally brought this up at the office like 2 days ago.
ill tell you why its really lame (imho), because php5 supports syntax
like this:
function someFunc() {
  return date_create();
}
echo someFunc()->format('Y-m-d');

that is, it allows you to chain a method invocation to the invocation of a
function
if the function returns an object.

So, make all your functions return objects, and have the object have a method called get or index or something like that that returns the index requested. :)

Better yet, make everything an object: String, Numeric, Array, etc
