syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting '='

Description

list() must appear on the left side of an assignation. It will be filled with the values in the array of the right side.

Example

<?php

var_dump(list(1,2,3));

?>

Solutions

• Add a = sign to the right of the list() call, and then, add an array on the right.

• Turn the list() into a [] short syntax. This might change the meaning, as, in this case, list() becomes an array.
