...
}

Basic Usage
In your code (for example, when trying to use a variable in an exception):
use PhpExtended\Inspect\Inspector;
if(!'<condition not satisfied with $myVar >')
{
throw new Exception(strtr(
'The given variable "myVar" is not an object, it\'s a {thing}.',
['{thing}' => Inspector::inspect($myVar)]
));
}
The expected results are the following :
use PhpExtended\Inspect\Inspector;
echo Inspector::inspect(null); // echo 'null'
echo Inspector::inspect(false); // echo 'boolean'
echo Inspector::inspect('myvar'); // echo 'string'
echo Inspector::inspect(1); // echo 'integer'
echo Inspector::inspect(1.5); // echo 'float'
echo Inspector::inspect(new stdClass()); // echo 'object(stdClass)'
echo Inspector::inspect(fopen(__FILE__, 'r')); // echo 'resource(stream)'
echo Inspector::inspect([1]); // echo 'array(integer)'
echo Inspector::inspect([1.5]); // echo 'array(float)'
echo Inspector::inspect([1, 1.5]); // echo 'array(integer,float)'
echo Inspector::inspect([1, 2, 3]); // echo 'array(integer)'
echo Inspector::inspect([new stdClass()]); // echo 'array(object(stdClass))'
echo Inspector::inspect([[1]]); // echo 'array(array(integer))'
