Array difficulty

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all,

I have an array like this:

$chance = array("lowercase" => 27, "uppercase" => 62, "integer" => 46); 

The values for each of the keys are randomly generated. I want to find the key name of the one which has the highest value. Currently, I'm doing this as follows:

arsort($chance);
foreach ($chance as $type => $value)
{
	$result = $type;
	break;
}

At this point, $result would be equal to "uppercase".  I feel like this is a really kludgey way to accomplish this.  Is there a better way?

Regards, 
Carlton Whitehead
