I got a simple question

in this code

PHP код:

stock Path(playerid) //Will create a new stock so we can easily use it later to load/save user's data in user's path
{
    new str[128],name[MAX_PLAYER_NAME];
    GetPlayerName(playerid,name,sizeof(name));
    format(str,sizeof(str),UserPath,name);
    return str;
} 


I am a newbie to y_ini and whirlpool, can u give me a specific reason of returning that code as a string ?
