Hi, While learning PHP programming & applications, I encountered an issue where I need to point last element of an array in PHP. I have searched in many php developer forum for this solutions but still issue remains the same. Hoping to get a solution from the fellow tech experts.

I need to point last element of an array

You need to 'point' an element? Or 'print' an element? If it is 'print', then Pravins has 'pointed' you to a function which should help. If you truly meant 'point', I'm confused.

  • Solution
$lastItem = $yourArray[count($yourArray) - 1];

If your array has 10 items in it, you want to point to index 9 because it's a zero based array (first item is index 0). So you want to point to the count (quantity) of items in the array minus 1.

This thread is more than a year old. Please don't revive it unless you have something important to add.
