Re: RFC karma request: array_partition()

Hi Ayoub, I am in support of array_partition() being added to the language in some way. Here is my feedback: - Semantically, the function name affords an indefinite number of groups/partitions. I have had many use cases where more than two partitions are desired. - It feels unintuitive that true callback outcomes map to the 0 key and false outcomes map to 1. - I want to be able to make unlimited groups keyed by the callback's return value (so long as the return value is a string or an int). $ageGrouped = array_partition($users, fn($u) => $u->age ?? -1); $byFirstByte = array_partition($words, fn($word) => substr($word, 0, 1)); - The callback should have access to the arrays keys and values. $modulusGrouped = array_partition($rows, fn($row, $i) => $i % 7); - Allowing your original intention of an indexed array with true outcomes first is still afforded by tweaking the evaluation or merely negating the boolean outcomes with !(expression). - Was strictly partitioning into only two parts a deliberate intention specific to the the term "partition"? I mean, did you deliberately choose to not name the function array_group()/array_batch() which might align with my behavioral deviation? Good luck with the RFC. mickmackusa >
