E.g. by passing that array as an parameter of the function

<?php
foo();

function foo() {
    $start = array('x','y','z');

    echo '[', bar($start), ']';
}

function bar(array $items) {
    return join(', ', $items);
}

foo() somehow builds an array, passes it to bar(), bar() does something with it and returns something. That return value again is echo's in foo().
