I wanted to use functions to make my code cleaner, but in these functions I also wanted to use a lot of global variables. First I did this: function foo() { global $bar, $baz, $fubar, $boo, $bop ... ; echo $bar; // ... } Not very nice. Then I did this: function foo() { extract ($GLOBALS); echo $bar; // ... } Neat! This even works across includes, of course.
