Usually you will want to pass this parameter, as well as the
<i><tt class="parameter">function_code</tt></i>
parameter, as a single quote
delimited string. The reason for using single quoted strings, is to
protect the variable names from parsing, otherwise, if you use double
quotes there will be a need to escape the variable names, e.g.
\<var class="varname">$your_var</var>.
