Only a couple of weeks into Laravel and trivial but feels like it doesn’t support – for want of a better phrase, pythonic syntax. I’m more lines of code than I would in Ruby or Python oh and there are lots of types of arrays… you have to declare it’s an array also!
$myArray = [‘one’, ‘two’, ‘three’] # php
myArray = [‘one’, ‘two’, ‘three’] # ruby
To shuffle the array
PHP
<?php $myArray = ['one', 'two', 'three']; shuffle($myArray); foreach ($myArray as $item) echo $item;
Ruby myArray = ['one', 'two', 'three'].shuffle puts myArray
