Below programs illustrate the ReflectionParameter::hasType() function in PHP:
Program 1:

class Company1 
{ 
    public function GFG( int $Parameter){} 
} 
   
// Initializing a subclass Company2 
class Company2 extends Company1 
{ 
} 
   
// Using the ReflectionParameter over the above class 
$A = new ReflectionParameter(['Company2', 'GFG'], 0);  
   
// Calling the hasType() function 
$B = $A->hasType(); 
   
// Getting TRUE if a type is specified,  
// FALSE otherwise. 
var_dump($B); 
?> 

Output:

bool(true)

Program 2:

<?php 
  
// Initializing some user-defined classes 
class Department1 
{ 
    protected function HR(float $Parameter1){} 
} 
class Department2 
{ 
    final function Coding( $Parameter2, $Parameter3){} 
} 
class Department3 
{ 
    function Marketing( sting $Parameter4,  
      string $Parameter5, string $Parameter6){} 
} 
  
// Using the ReflectionParameter over the above classes 
$A = new ReflectionParameter(['Department1', 'HR'], 0); 
$B = new ReflectionParameter(['Department2', 'Coding'], 1); 
$C = new ReflectionParameter(['Department3', 'Marketing'], 2); 
  
// Calling the hasType() function and  
// getting TRUE if a type is specified,  
// FALSE otherwise. 
var_dump($A->hasType()); 
var_dump($B->hasType()); 
var_dump($C->hasType()); 
?>
