Starter:

Wordpress allows developers and theme creators to write functions that allow the user to use shortcode, i.e., [adsense]. This kind of "pseudo" code makes it easy for end users to insert elements where they would like without knowing about coding.

Knowing that we can create shortcodes, we can create one to insert a Google Adsense ad anywhere in our theme.

Main Course:

function showads() {  
     	return '<div id="adsense"><script type="text/javascript"><!--  
     	google_ad_client = "pub-XXXXXXXXXXXXXX";  
    	 google_ad_slot = "4668915978";  
    	 google_ad_width = 468;  
    	 google_ad_height = 60;  
    	 //-->  
		 </script>  
 
		 <script type="text/javascript"  src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">  
 		 </script></div>';  
 }  
 
 add_shortcode('adsense', 'showads');
