Normie (short for Normalizer) attempts to make using the PHP Standard Library (SPL) function calls more consistent by implementing a norm_{function name}() wrapper function declarations. This library DOES NOT over ride the SPL functions in any way.
Examples
Function parameter order examples.
Arrays fn()
Normie array functions follow the 'array source X, operator Y (callback,key, needle, etc), other parameters are Z' mentality. The complete list of array functions are viewable here.
Normie string functions follow the 'Search X string or Y target, replace with Z string' mentality. The complete list of string functions are viewable here.
I got tired of that as well, so I made this:

SPL: array array_map ( callable $callback, array $arr1, array $_ = null) { }
Normie: array norm_array_map( array $array, callable $callback, array $userdata = null): array
Strings fn()
Normie string functions follow the 'Search X string or Y target, replace with Z string' mentality. The complete list of string functions are viewable here.
SPL: array explode ( string $delimiter , string $string [, int $limit = PHP_INT_MAX ] )
