If you are unable to upgrade to PHP 7.3 (not released at the time of writing), you can use this simple polyfill:

<?php
if (!function_exists('is_countable')) {
function
is_countable($var) {
return (
is_array($var) || $var instanceof Countable);
}
}
?>

be wary of using is_object($var) and assuming that the object has implemented Countable. Not all objects are countable directly with count().

Note that a polyfill for this method is also provided by the symfony/polyfill project.
