 Hello @hellofromTonya

 I need a little clarification for

 Task 3: Review all uses of call_user_func_array()

 Do we need to implement the array_values function before each
 call_user_func_array() in the case where it is not clear about the
 argument being a numeric indexed array?

 Example: call_user_func_array( 'test_function', $options );

 In this case, we can assume that the $options is a numeric indexed array
 but it can also be a string one. So if we do use array_values, passing the
 key names as parameter names will also not matter. So in this case, it
 seems we would have to add a condition check for param names if the
 function does support it. Otherwise use array_values before it
