array_push — Push one or more elements onto the end of array
array_push() treats array as a stack, and pushes the passed variables onto the end of array. The length of array increases by the number of variables pushed. Has the same effect as:
<?php
$array[] = $var;
?>
Note: If you use array_push() to add one element to the array it's better to use $array[] = because in that way there is no overhead of calling a function.
Note: array_push() will raise a warning if the first argument is not an array. This differs from the $var[] behaviour where a new array is created.
The input array.
The pushed value.
Returns the new number of elements in the array.
Example #1 array_push() example
<?php
$stack = array("orange", "banana");
array_push($stack, "apple", "raspberry");
print_r($stack);
?>
The above example will output:
Array
(
[0] => orange
[1] => banana
[2] => apple
[3] => raspberry
)
