:::info[Note] This is a point-in-time snapshot of the API documentation from January 2026. Going forward, we will not be maintaining a public copy of these references, and recommend users to refer to the built-in signature helpers available in the Hack LSP instead for complete and up-to-date information. :::
Returns an Iterable containing the values after the n-th element of the
current Iterable
public function skip(
int $n,
): Iterable<Tv>;
The returned Iterable will always be a proper subset of the current
Iterable.
$n is 1-based. So the first element is 1, the second 2, etc.
int $n - The last element to be skipped; the $n+1 element will be
the first one in the returned Iterable.Iterable<Tv> - An Iterable that is a proper subset of the current Iterable
containing values after the specified n-th element.
