Yes, you can write `all($set, $predicate_fn)` as `!any($set, fn($x) => !$predicate_fn($x))` or some other common primitive such as and(), but as an end user or a reviewer of code, I really don't want to do the latter, which is why I proposed adding both of these. (also see below snippet) > Would there also be an xor() or equivalent?? one() or something?? > > If (count(array_filter($collection, “is_int”)) === 1) I don't plan to expand the scope of the RFC more - there are various features such as none() or `exactly_n(int $n, $iterable, $callback)` I'm also not proposing.

The naming is based on mathematical notation. - any($list, $predicate) "Determines whether any element of the iterable satisfies the predicate." - all($list, $predicate) "Determines whether all elements of the iterable satisfy the predicate." every() and some() are alternative names, but all()/any() are my preference and appear more commonly used elsewhere. - https://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.14.0.0/docs/Prelude.html#v:any - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/some - https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#all - https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/util/stream/Stream.html#allMatch-java.util.function.Predicate- Thanks, - Tyson -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: https://www.php.net/unsub.php
