Re: list() limitations

Hello, the following behavior seems odd: $foo = array('a' => 'apple', 'b' => 'banana'); // Notice - Undefined offset: 1 // Notice - Undefined offset: 0 list($a,$b) = $foo;

Isn't this line should be list($a, $b) = array_keys($foo); or list($a, $b) = array_values($foo);

// This of course works as expected while(list(,$ab) = each($foo)) {

      print $ab;

} I recently documented this numerical requirement (starting at 0) as a <note> but find it odd. This is mentioned as a bug in a few places but I can't find any closed reports. It's a pretty good feature request, right?

I might miss you point, since it seems we are going to make these feature requests bogus. -- Yasuo Ohgaki
