I guess you have tried foreach?
foreach ($array as $key => $value) {
...
}

More over.. PHP seems to be quiet slow when dealing with array_shift() array_unshift(), but it is much faster with array_pop() array_push(). I am not familiar with the PHP internals, but why not add a pointer to the start and end of the array?Good word can be said on PHP that accelerated at least count() function..Maybe I require too much.. PHP is a rapid development scripting language.. not a massive optimized programming language.. :-/Eli wrote:Hi,Why isn't there a function that acts like array_pop() returns a pair of key-value rather than the value only ?Reason is, that in order to pop the key-value pair, you do: <?php $arr = array('a'=>1,'b'=>2,'c'=>3,'d'=>4); $arr_keys = array_keys($arr); $key = array_pop($arr_keys); $value = $arr[$key]; ?>I benchmarked array_keys() function and it is very slow on big arrays since PHP has to build the array. While array_pop() can be acceleraed by the guts of PHP engine.-thanks
