count
A simple copy function that not only copies the given array but ensures the copy's pointer is set to the exact same position:
function array_copy(&array)
{
$key = key($array);
$copy = $array;
while (($copy_key = key($copy)) !== NULL) {
if ($copy_key == $key) break;
next($copy);
}
return $copy;
}
That's all ... bye.
current
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
current — Retourne l'élément courant du tableau
Description
Chaque tableau entretient un pointeur interne, qui est initialisé lorsque le premier élément est inséré dans le tableau.
Liste de paramètres
- array
-
Le tableau.
Valeurs de retour
current() ne fait que retourner l'élément courant pointé par le pointeur interne du tableau array . current() ne déplace pas le pointeur. Si le pointeur est au-delà du dernier élément de la liste, current() retourne FALSE.
Avertissement
Cette fonction peut retourner FALSE, mais elle peut aussi retourner une valeur équivalent à FALSE comme 0 ou "". Veuillez lire la section sur les booléens pour plus d'informations. Utilisez l'opérateur === pour tester la valeur de retour exacte de cette fonction.
Exemples
Exemple #1 Exemple d'utilisation de current()
<?php
$transport = array('foot', 'bike', 'car', 'plane');
$mode = current($transport); // $mode = 'foot';
$mode = next($transport); // $mode = 'bike';
$mode = current($transport); // $mode = 'bike';
$mode = prev($transport); // $mode = 'foot';
$mode = end($transport); // $mode = 'plane';
$mode = current($transport); // $mode = 'plane';
$arr = array();
var_dump(current($arr)); // bool(false)
$arr = array(array());
var_dump(current($arr)); // array(0) { }
?>
Notes
Note: Vous ne serez pas capable de distinguer la fin d'un tableau avec l'élément booléen FALSE. Pour traverser correctement un tableau qui peut contenir l'élément FALSE, voyez la fonction each().

It took me a while to figure this out, but there is a more consistent way to figure out whether you really went past the end of the array, than using each().
You see, each() gets the value BEFORE advancing the pointer, and next() gets the value AFTER advancing the pointer. When you are implementing the Iterator interface, therefore, it's a real pain in the behind to use each().
And thus, I give you the solution:
To see if you've blown past the end of the array, use key($array) and see if it returns NULL. If it does, you're past the end of the array -- keys can't be null in arrays.
Nifty, huh? Here's how I implemented the Iterator interface in one of my classes:
<?php
/**
* DbRow file
* @package PalDb
*/
/**
* This class lets you use Db rows and object-relational mapping functionality.
*/
class DbRow implements Iterator
{
/**
* The DbResult object that gave us this row through fetchDbRows
* @var DbResult
*/
protected $result;
/**
* The fields of the row
* @var $fields
*/
protected $fields;
/**
* Constructor
*
* @param PDOStatement $stmt
* The PDO statement object that this result uses
* @param DbResult $result
* The result that produced this row through fetchDbRows
*/
function __construct($result)
{
$this->result = $result;
}
/**
* Get the DbResult object that gave us this row through fetchDbRows
* @return DbResult
*
* @return unknown
*/
function getResult()
{
return $this->result;
}
function __set(
$name,
$value)
{
$this->fields[$name] = $value;
}
function __get(
$name)
{
if (isset($this->fields[$name]))
return $this->fields[$name];
else
return null;
}
/**
* Iterator implementation - rewind
*/
function rewind()
{
$this->beyondLastField = false;
return reset($this->fields);
}
function valid()
{
return !$this->beyondLastField;
}
function current()
{
return current($this->fields);
}
function key()
{
return key($this->fields);
}
function next()
{
$next = next($this->fields);
$key = key($this->fields);
if (isset($key)) {
return $next[1];
} else {
$this->beyondLastField = true;
return false; // doesn't matter what we return here, see valid()
}
}
private $beyondLastField = false;
};
Hope this helps someone.

To that "note": You won't be able to distinguish the end of an array from a boolean FALSE element, BUT you can distinguish the end from a NULL value of the key() function.
Example:
<?php
if (key($array) === null) {
echo "You are in the end of the array.";
} else {
echo "Current element: " . current($array);
}
?>

To make this function return a reference to the element instead, use:
<?php
function ¤t_by_ref(&$arr) {
return $arr[key($arr)];
}
?>

For large array(my sample was 80000+ elements), if you want to traverse the array in sequence, using array index $a[$i] could be very inefficient(very slow). I had to switch to use current($a).

Note that by copying an array its internal pointer is lost:
<?php
$myarray = array(0=>'a', 1=>'b', 2=>'c');
next($myarray);
print_r(current($myarray));
echo '<br>';
$a = $myarray;
print_r(current($a));
?>
Would output 'b' and then 'a' since the internal pointer wasn't copied. You can cope with that problem using references instead, like that:
<?php
$a =& $myarray;
?>

if you got a array with number as index you get the last index with this:
eg:
$array[0] = "foo";
$array[1] = "foo2";
$lastKey = sizeof($array) - 1;
only a little help :)

The docs do not specify this, but adding to the array using the brackets syntax:
$my_array[] = $new_value;
will not advance the internal pointer of the array. therefore, you cannot use current() to get the last value added or key() to get the key of the most recently added element.
You should do an end($my_array) to advance the internal pointer to the end ( as stated in one of the notes on end() ), then
$last_key = key($my_array); // will return the key
$last_value = current($my_array); // will return the value
If you have no need in the key, $last_value = end($my_array) will also do the job.
