Phan does not attempt to make sense of things like `$class_name->$function_name(...

I wrote this when I had just woke up as I was excited, so I had to get a question in. I think what I meant was passing functions into other functions.

I do this for things like:

$user_requirements = [filter1, filter2];

foreach ($user_requirements as $test) { if (!$test($some_data)) { return false; } return true; }

Is there any way to tell the analyzer to make sure that afunction of n arguments is passed in?

What about `$$$v`? Does it handle `$$$v`?

> I'm not sure what SIMD refers to. Can you clarify that?

With a name like "asm" that comes as a surprise... Single Instruction Multiple Data[0] refers to low level processor instructions that are able to work across a range of data, e.g. video cards working on changing the values in a framebuffer with one instruction mapping across an entire buffer in parallel.

That doesn't clarify what the OP meant. PHP does not allow you to issue processor instructions directly.

I'm going to take a crazy leap here based on the commits. asm might not stand for what you think.
