1.2.1135. Spread Operator For Array¶
The variadic operator may be used with arrays. This has been introduced in PHP 7.4.
list() is not allowed to use this operator, as list() expected variables, not values.
<?php
$array = [1, 2, 3];
$extended_array = [...$array, 4, 5, 6];
// invalid syntax
[...$a] = [1,2,3];
?>
