From: evertvandansen at ymail dot com Operating system: Any PHP version: 5.4.8 Package: Unknown/Other Function Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:Add alternate, more logical foreach syntax
Description: ------------ This is a very low priority request for adding an alternate foreach syntax. Right now we write something like: foreach ($cats as $cat) Which is fine, but neither semantically nor grammatically correct. I would propose that foreach ($cat in $cats) or foreach ($cat from $cats) makes much more sense and is more readable. Not just from a grammatical point of view, but also because that way the actual identifier you use in the iteration is placed first. The existing syntax should obviously remain, it is simply an alternate syntax, not meant to substitute. Again, it is not a very important request as it does not improve PHP technically, only in regards to readability and (for some) usability. -- Edit bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=63317&edit=1 -- Try a snapshot (PHP 5.4): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=trysnapshot54 Try a snapshot (PHP 5.3): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=trysnapshot53 Try a snapshot (trunk): https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=trysnapshottrunk Fixed in SVN: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=fixed Fixed in release: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=needtrace Need Reproduce Script: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=needscript Try newer version: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=oldversion Not developer issue: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=support Expected behavior: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=notwrong Not enough info: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=submittedtwice register_globals: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=globals PHP 4 support discontinued: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=php4 Daylight Savings: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=dst IIS Stability: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=gnused Floating point limitations: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=float No Zend Extensions: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=nozend MySQL Configuration Error: https://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=63317&r=mysqlcfg
