note 129497 added to functions.arguments

The ... argument syntax will capture named arguments that don't correspond to actual function parameters. These unknown named arguments will be ignored by functions like func_get_args(), but they are available in the variadic parameter under the name they were given: <?php function demo($first, $second, ...$rest) { echo "First:"; var_dump($first); echo "\n"; echo "Second:"; var_dump($second); echo "\n"; echo "Rest:"; var_dump($rest); echo "\n"; } demo(1, third:3, second:2, fourth:4); ?> ---- Server IP: 45.112.84.4 Probable Submitter: 80.90.13.131 (proxied: 222.152.65.7) ---- Manual Page -- https://php.net/manual/en/functions.arguments.php Edit -- https://main.php.net/note/edit/129497 Del: integrated -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129497/integrated Del: useless -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129497/useless Del: bad code -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129497/bad+code Del: spam -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129497/spam Del: non-english -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129497/non-english Del: in docs -- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129497/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://main.php.net/note/delete/129497 Reject -- https://main.php.net/note/reject/129497 Search -- https://main.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
