Python provides the ‘*’ operator for unpacking a list of tuples and giving them to a function as arguments, like so:
args = [3, 6] range(*args) # call with arguments unpacked from a list
This is equivalent to:
range(3, 6)
Does anyone know if there is a way to achieve this in PHP? Some googling for variations of ‘PHP Unpack’ hasn’t immediately turned up anything.. perhaps it’s called something different in PHP?
You can use
call_user_func_array()to achieve that:call_user_func_array('range', $args);to use your example.
