unpacking an array of arguments in php
In php5.6 Argument unpacking via ... (splat operator) has been added. Using it, you can get rid of call_user_func_array() for this simpler alternative. For example having a function:
function add($a, $b){ return $a + $b;}With your array $list = [4, 6]; (after php5.5 you can declare arrays in this way).
You can call your function with ...:
echo add(...$list);
You can use call_user_func_array() to achieve that:
call_user_func_array("range", $args); to use your example.
In certain scenarios, you might consider using unpacking, which is possible in php, is a similar way to python:
list($min, $max) = [3, 6];range($min, $max);This is how I have arrived to this answer at least.Google search: PHP argument unpacking
