Why do I get this error i app file

Fatal error: Call to undefined function env() in C:\xampp\htdocs\laravel\config\app.php on line 16

i got this answer If you have not renamed the .env.example file to .env, you should do that now. If the application key is not set, your user sessions and other encrypted data will not be secure!
