Description
int
array_push ( array array, mixed var [, mixed ...])
array_push() treats
array as a stack, and pushes the passed
variables onto the end of array. The
length of array increases by the number of
variables pushed. Has the same effect as:
|
<?php
$array[] = $var;
?>
|
repeated for each
var.
Returns the new number of elements in the array.
Example 1. array_push() example |
<?php
$stack = array("orange", "banana");
array_push($stack, "apple", "raspberry");
print_r($stack);
?>
|
This example would result in $stack having
the following elements:
|
Array
(
[0] => orange
[1] => banana
[2] => apple
[3] => raspberry
)
|
|
Note:
If you use array_push() to add one element to the
array it's better to use $array[] = because in that
way there is no overhead of calling a function.
See also array_pop(),
array_shift(), and
array_unshift().
