Hi! The `extract` function takes an associative array and puts it into the local symbol table. http://php.net/manual/en/function.extract.php ``` $array = [ ‘foo’ => ‘foo’, ‘bar’ => ‘bar’, ]; extract($array); print $foo; // "foo" ``` As a second parameter the `extract` function takes some options to make this function less dangerous, like `EXTR_SKIP` that prevents an existing local variable of being overwritten. There’s a few more options, go ahead and take a look at the documentation. `EXTR_OVERWRITE` is the default one though. You can also pass a prefix for the variable names as a third argument. I seriously doubt the usefulness of this function
then don't use it - who are you proposing remove functionality because you don't use it - fine, nobody forces you to do so - a foreach() replacement would miss EXTR_OVERWRITE - this whole thread is a "have solution, looking for a problem"
