Can we pass an array as parameter in any function in PHP?

by

You can pass an array as an argument. It is copied by value (or COW’d, which essentially means the same to you), so you can array_pop() (and similar) all you like on it and won’t affect anything outside.

function sendemail($id, $userid){
    // ...
}

sendemail(array('a', 'b', 'c'), 10);

You can in fact only accept an array there by placing its type in the function’s argument signature…

function sendemail(array $id, $userid){
    // ...
}

You can also call the function with its arguments as an array…

call_user_func_array('sendemail', array('argument1', 'argument2'));
