Now you guys are catching on the what I am talking about...
I had read in a meeting notes or something on PHP6 that there was talk of standardizing the use of needle and haystack functions so they all worked the same. The group decided that since there were not that many functions that used haystack, needle, they would leave them the way they are.
Nobody talked about the underscored function names though. That's be nice.

I think it was something like 6 out of 50. And to fix it, they'd either have to totally break all old scripts, or add MORE cruft to the language to work around accepting either - and having undefined/unpredictable behavior in many cases.Everah wrote:The group decided that since there were not that many functions that used haystack, needle, they would leave them the way they are.
Frankly, not worth it.
