Alternative to array_push

[TheJoey]

hey there php freaks

 

i have a code snippet and it using array_push and i was just curious to find out if there is an another way to use an array the same way but without array_push

 

thanks

 

$super = array();
$supersuper = array();
array_push($tick,tock);

not many  (any?) other languages support this,  but you can use brackets with a key to push to the "next" available key.

$a = array();
$a[] = 1;   //  key 0
$a[] = 2;  // key 1

im sorry could u explain that a little more? or mabye use the tick tock example i have :)thanks

$tick[] =tock;

so array($tick[]=tock) instead the push?

Try doing this:

 

// initialize the array
$newArray = array();
// set some values in variables
$tick = 1;
$tock = 2;
// stick em in the array
$newArray[] = $tick;
$newArray[] = $tock;

this will create the following aray

$newArray(1, 2);

 

thats about it. I would use array_push() though -> you can do alot more like pushing arrays into arrays... etc. Check php.net for more info on it
