how it is different? How explaining array written as [] so much harder
that explaining array written as ()? What exactly constitutes the
problem?
Here's the difference:
You can Google for 'array' and learn a lot.
If you try to Google for [] you don't learn squat.
Try it and see.
So our 'newbie' at least has a good chance of figuring out array(1, 2,
3) on their own. They've got must worse odds of figuring out [1,2,3]
Ok. So I propose more "searcheable" operators:
let($i, 1) === $i = 1
let($d, add($a, $b, $c)) === $d = $a + $b + $c
call(foo, $arg1, $arg2) === foo($arg1, $arg2)
:-)
Our 'newbie' at least has a good chance of figuring out
$a = [1,2,3] vs. $a = array(1,2,3)
is different than
$a = foobar(1,2,3)
