If you have gone through the upgrade guide then you must know that

String and Array

Helpers are removed from Core Framework

https://laravel.com/docs/6.0/upgrade#helpers

https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/5.8/src/Illuminate/Support/helpers.php#L1071

So if if You need to still use the helper install the package

composer require laravel/helpers

and all the helpers are moved to this package
