I know enough basic PHP to read a page with code in it and 
get the general drift. I've never written a line of it and have 
learned enough about it that I don't want to! :-)

Now as for extract() - it doesn't appear in my Teach Yourself PHP 
book, so nope, I've no idea what it does, I'd need to look it up.
And I'm way too lazy, and it's way too late to do that! :-)
