when you generate a list() viewer, there is something I don't quite understand. in the example below I have bolded a few Ss. I am curious why these are here:
There have been times where I have accidentally removed these, but the pages still loaded properly.
// load records
list($newsRecords, $newsMetaData) = getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'news',
'limit' => '1',
));
$newsRecord = @$newsRecords[0]; // get first recordThere have been times where I have accidentally removed these, but the pages still loaded properly.

Hi,
$newsRecords and $newsRecord are just variable names. In your example, $newsRecords is an array of records.
In this line:
You take the first record from $newsRecords and assign it to a variable called $newsRecord.
You can remove the "s" and it will still work as long as you remove it in both cases.
Hope this helps clarify. Let me know if you have any other questions.
