Short list syntax for array destructuring approved

Link – May 11th 2016

On dotdev.co Eric L. Barnes explains a new feature that is coming in PHP 7.1

With the accepted proposal it creates an alternative to using “list” for destructuring an array. In all previous versions of PHP this works like this: list($a, $b, $c) = array(1, 2, 3); Now you can extract using a square bracket just as you do for assignment: [$a, $b, $c] = [1, 2, 3]; ["a" => $a, "b" => $b] = ["a" => a, "b", => 2];
