For example, instead of:
function addFive(int $x) {
return $x + 5;
}
You would simply do:
function addFive(is_numeric $x) {
return $x + 5;
}
Since $x is guaranteed to be numeric, it is safe to to arithmetic on
it. No reason to explicitly type cast here.
I like it too. Not only it solves the initial problem, but it also
allows userland extensions. For example,
the current patch does not provide checks for callables, but we already
have is_callable in the core.
