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.
