title: What does bind_param() do?
body: <pre><code>$resultSpendStmt = $connection-&gt;prepare(...);
  $array-&gt;bind_param("sdidi", $A, $B, $C, $D, $E);
  $array-&gt;execute();
  $array-&gt;store_result();
  $array-&gt;bind_result($F, $G, $H, $I, $J, $K);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am still a little unsure what bind_param does. Can someone give me an example as to what is means?</p>
