Method Chaining in OOP in PHP

It is possible to make methods callable one after another in a chain. For this, each such method must return $this. Let's try it. Let's add the corresponding code to the setters of our class:

<?php class User { private $name; private $surn; public function setName($name) { $this->name = $name; return $this; } public function setSurn($surn) { $this->surn = $surn; return $this; } public function getName() { return $this->name; } public function getSurn() { return $this->surn; } } ?>

Now our setters can be called one after another, in a chain. Let's test it. Let's create an object of our class:

<?php $user = new User(); ?>

Let's call our setters in a chain:

<?php $user->setName('john')->setSurn('smit'); ?>

Let's check that the property values have changed:

<?php echo $user->getName(); echo $user->getSurn(); ?>

Make it so that the setters of the Employee class can be called in a chain.
