Using the current variadic functions makes it possible to use 0 or N
arguments, e.g.:
function sum() {
return array_sum(func_get_args());
}
echo sum(10, 5); // echoes 15
echo sum(); // echoes 0
I see nowhere in the RFC whether:
function sum(...$params) { /* */ }
Requires at minimum one argument or none.
I have the _feeling_ that you imply it's minimum one which I would
consider a bit inconsistent with the current "implementation".
Can you please clarify this Nikita?
Thanks
