implode() Arguments Order¶
Until PHP 8.0, it was possible to call implode() with a random order of argument : string first, or array first. PHP would figure out which one to use.
In PHP 8.0, it is now compulsory to put the string in the first place, as the types are checked. Or used named parameters.
PHP code¶
<?php
print_r(implode([1,2], '3'));
?>
Before¶
PHP Deprecated: implode(): Passing glue string after array is deprecated. Swap the parameters in /codes/imploderOrder.php on line 3
