PHP list Keyword

PHP Keywords : Assign elements of an array to variables

Definition and Usage

The list keyword keyword assigns elements of an array to a list of variables.

If there are not enough elements in the array it will output a notice and assign null to the remaining variables.

Note: Since PHP 7.1.0, which elements are assigned to the variables can be selected using arrow => syntax.

Choose which element is assigned to which variable:

<?php
list(2 => $a, 0 => $b, 1 => $c) = [1, 2, 3];
echo "$a is " . $a . "<br>";
echo "$b is " . $b . "<br>";
echo "$c is " . $c . "<br>";
?>
