Why php is more flexible ? See this function example:
Class Record
{
public function getMessage()
{
return "Hello world";
}
}
//You can call this function like this:
$function = "getMessage";
$R = new Record;
call_user_func( array($R, $function ) );
If you want to pass some argument , you can use rest of the parameters of call-user_function;
eg: call_user_func( array($R, $function ) , $param, $param2);
For more info: http://www.php.net/call_user_func

Thanks, this was useful.
You have a mistake in you link “For more info”, pattern=call_user_fun and it needs to be pattern=call_user_func.
Thankz for the information. Its too simple by comparing with PHP.net site. But anyhow its worthy for few coders like me.
You can also do
$R->$function($param, $param2);
