Pull from Collection/Arr using a callback

[cfs100]

Hi everyone!

Today I has a task that required me to pull some information from a collection, so later on I could assert that the collection was empty. It is quite simple if you think about it, but I couldn't figure out an elegant way to write it. Oh, one important detail is: I didn't know the keys to those information.

Initially I wrote something like $info = $collection->first(fn (item) => $item == $neededInfo); $collection = $collect->reject(fn (item) => $item == $neededInfo); and then changed it to a macro that did a search + get + forget and used it like $info = $collection->pullFirst(fn (item) => $item == $neededInfo);. But IMHO this approach still isn't great.

I read pretty much the whole Collections' doc but didn't find a simple way to do this. Wouldn't it be nice to have such a functionality? Or is it just me?

I want to finally start contributing to the project, but I think it'd be nice to get some opinions first.
