III. Array Functions

Introduction

These functions allow you to interact with and manipulate arrays in various ways. Arrays are essential for storing, managing, and operating on sets of variables.

Simple and multi-dimensional arrays are supported, and may be either user created or created by another function. There are specific database handling functions for populating arrays from database queries, and several functions return arrays.

Please see the Arrays section of the manual for a detailed explanation of how arrays are implemented and used in PHP. See also Array operators for other ways how to manipulate the arrays.

Requirements

No external libraries are needed to build this extension.

Installation

There is no installation needed to use these functions; they are part of the PHP core.

Runtime Configuration

This extension has no configuration directives defined in php.ini.

Resource Types

This extension has no resource types defined.

Predefined Constants

The constants below are always available as part of the PHP core.

CASE_LOWER (integer): CASE_LOWER is used with array_change_key_case() and is used to convert array keys to lower case. This is also the default case for array_change_key_case().
CASE_UPPER (integer): CASE_UPPER is used with array_change_key_case() and is used to convert array keys to upper case.

Sorting order flags:

SORT_ASC (integer): SORT_ASC is used with array_multisort() to sort in ascending order.
SORT_DESC (integer): SORT_DESC is used with array_multisort() to sort in descending order.

Sorting type flags: used by various sort functions

SORT_REGULAR (integer): SORT_REGULAR is used to compare items normally.
SORT_NUMERIC (integer): SORT_NUMERIC is used to compare items numerically.
SORT_STRING (integer): SORT_STRING is used to compare items as strings.
SORT_LOCALE_STRING (integer): SORT_LOCALE_STRING is used to compare items as strings, based on the current locale. Added in PHP 4.3.12 and 5.0.2.

COUNT_NORMAL (integer)
COUNT_RECURSIVE (integer)
EXTR_OVERWRITE (integer)
EXTR_SKIP (integer)
EXTR_PREFIX_SAME (integer)
EXTR_PREFIX_ALL (integer)
EXTR_PREFIX_INVALID (integer)
EXTR_PREFIX_IF_EXISTS (integer)
EXTR_IF_EXISTS (integer)
EXTR_REFS (integer)
