+This function takes two mandatory arguments, in this order:
 
-      $a.each |$x| { ... }
-      each($a) |$x| { ... }
+1. An array or hash the function will iterate over.
+2. A lambda, which the function calls for each element in the first argument. It can
+request one or two parameters.
 
-When the first argument is an Array (or of enumerable type other than Hash), the parameterized block
-should define one or two block parameters.
-For each application of the block, the next element from the array is selected, and it is passed to
-the block if the block has one parameter. If the block has two parameters, the first is the elements
-index, and the second the value. The index starts from 0.
+**Example**: Using the `each` function

-      each($a) |$index, $value| { ... }
+`$data.each |$parameter| { <PUPPET CODE BLOCK> }`
 
-When the first argument is a Hash, the parameterized block should define one or two parameters.
-When one parameter is defined, the iteration is performed with each entry as an array of `[key, value]`,
-and when two parameters are defined the iteration is performed with key and value.

 The first argument to this function should be a `<MODULE NAME>/<TEMPLATE FILE>`
-reference, which will load `<TEMPLATE FILE>` from a module's `templates`
-directory. (For example, the reference `apache/vhost.conf.epp` will load the
-file `<MODULES DIRECTORY>/apache/templates/vhost.conf.epp`.)
-
-The second argument is optional; if present, it should be a hash containing parameters for the
-template. (See below.)
-
-EPP supports the following tags:
-
-* `<%= puppet expression %>` - This tag renders the value of the expression it contains.
-* `<% puppet expression(s) %>` - This tag will execute the expression(s) it contains, but renders nothing.
-* `<%# comment %>` - The tag and its content renders nothing.
-* `<%%` or `%%>` - Renders a literal `<%` or `%>` respectively.
-* `<%-` - Same as `<%` but suppresses any leading whitespace.
-* `-%>` - Same as `%>` but suppresses any trailing whitespace on the same line (including line break).
-* `<%- |parameters| -%>` - When placed as the first tag declares the template's parameters.
-
-File based EPP supports the following visibilities of variables in scope:
-
-* Global scope (i.e. top + node scopes) - global scope is always visible
-* Global + all given arguments - if the EPP template does not declare parameters, and arguments are given
-* Global + declared parameters - if the EPP declares parameters, given argument names must match
-
-EPP supports parameters by placing an optional parameter list as the very first element in the EPP. As an example,
-`<%- |$x, $y, $z = 'unicorn'| -%>` when placed first in the EPP text declares that the parameters `x` and `y` must be
-given as template arguments when calling `inline_epp`, and that `z` if not given as a template argument
-defaults to `'unicorn'`. Template parameters are available as variables, e.g.arguments `$x`, `$y` and `$z` in the example.
-Note that `<%-` must be used or any leading whitespace will be interpreted as text
-
-Arguments are passed to the template by calling `epp` with a Hash as the last argument, where parameters
-are bound to values, e.g. `epp('...', {'x'=>10, 'y'=>20})`. Excess arguments may be given
-(i.e. undeclared parameters) only if the EPP templates does not declare any parameters at all.
-Template parameters shadow variables in outer scopes. File based epp does never have access to variables in the
-scope where the `epp` function is called from.
-
-- See function inline_epp for examples of EPP
+reference, which loads `<TEMPLATE FILE>` from `<MODULE NAME>`'s `templates`
+directory. In most cases, the last argument is optional; if used, it should be a
+[hash](/puppet/latest/reference/lang_data_hash.html) that contains parameters to
+pass to the template.

+for general template usage information.
+- See the [EPP syntax](/puppet/latest/reference/lang_template_epp.html)

+
+For example, to call the apache module's `templates/vhost/_docroot.epp`

+
+`epp('apache/vhost/_docroot.epp', { 'docroot' => '/var/www/html',

+
+Puppet produces a syntax error if you pass more parameters than are declared in
+the template's parameter tag. When passing parameters to a template that
+contains a parameter tag, use the same names as the tag's declared parameters.

+Parameters are required only if they are declared in the called template's

+$users = hiera('users') | $key | { "Key \'${key}\' not found" }
+

+# If hiera couldn't match its key, it would return the lambda result,

+Finds all matches of a key throughout the hierarchy and returns them as a single flattened
+array of unique values. If any of the matched values are arrays, they're flattened and
+included in the results. This is called an
+[array merge lookup](https://docs.puppetlabs.com/hiera/latest/lookup_types.html#array-merge).
+
+The `hiera_array` function takes up to three arguments, in this order:
+
+1. A string key that Hiera searches for in the hierarchy. **Required**.
+2. An optional default value to return if Hiera doesn't find anything matching the key.
+    * If this argument isn't provided and this function results in a lookup failure, Puppet
+    fails with a compilation error.
+3. The optional name of an arbitrary
+[hierarchy level](https://docs.puppetlabs.com/hiera/latest/hierarchy.html) to insert at the
+top of the hierarchy. This lets you temporarily modify the hierarchy for a single lookup.
+    * If Hiera doesn't find a matching key in the overriding hierarchy level, it continues
+    searching the rest of the hierarchy.
+
+**Example**: Using `hiera_array`
+
+~~~ yaml
+# Assuming hiera.yaml
+# :hierarchy:
+#   - web01.example.com
+#   - common
+
+# Assuming common.yaml:
+# users:
+#   - 'cdouglas = regular'
+#   - 'efranklin = regular'
+
+# Assuming web01.example.com.yaml:
+# users: 'abarry = admin'
+~~~
+
+~~~ puppet
+$allusers = hiera_array('users', undef)
+
+# $allusers contains ["cdouglas = regular", "efranklin = regular", "abarry = admin"].
+~~~
+
+You can optionally generate the default value with a
+[lambda](https://docs.puppetlabs.com/puppet/latest/reference/lang_lambdas.html) that
+takes one parameter.
+
+**Example**: Using `hiera_array` with a lambda
+
+~~~ puppet
+# Assuming the same Hiera data as the previous example:
+
+$allusers = hiera_array('users') | $key | { "Key \'${key}\' not found" }
+
+# $allusers contains ["cdouglas = regular", "efranklin = regular", "abarry = admin"].
+# If hiera_array couldn't match its key, it would return the lambda result,
+# "Key 'users' not found".
+~~~
+
+`hiera_array` expects that all values returned will be strings or arrays. If any matched
+value is a hash, Puppet raises a type mismatch error.
+
+`hiera_array` is deprecated in favor of using `lookup` and will be removed in 6.0.0.
+See  https://docs.puppet.com/puppet/#{Puppet.version}/reference/deprecated_language.html.
+Replace the calls as follows:
+
+| from  | to |
+| ----  | ---|
+| hiera_array($key) | lookup($key, { 'merge' => 'unique' }) |
+| hiera_array($key, $default) | lookup($key, { 'default_value' => $default, 'merge' => 'unique' }) |
+| hiera_array($key, $default, $level) | override level not supported |
+
+Note that calls using the 'override level' option are not directly supported by 'lookup' and the produced
+result must be post processed to get exactly the same result, for example using simple hash/array `+` or
+with calls to stdlib's `deep_merge` function depending on kind of hiera call and setting of merge in hiera.yaml.
+
+See
