Hey, Heres my setup, I have a directory full of files and I get a request with an array of filenames For this example: a.txt b.txt c.txt if the above files dont already exist I need to create them (I am using touch() instead of fopen()) My question is which would you recommend, doing a readdir() and getting all the existing filenames in an array then doing a loop to see which exists and create the others OR just taking the new filenames, doing a while/for loop with a files_exists() on each and then creating the files.... I am favouring the second approach as in the first approach there are a lot of files the array could be pretty big which would cause other problems, but I would rather be corrected now if my thinking is flawed. Your advise appreciated. Thanks!
