Question about translating assoc. arrays to C

I'm working on creating a compiled extension for some code I've written. Mostly it's manipulating a very large multi-demensional array of values. This is some pseudo code for the array. // Imagine this but much much bigger $big_ass_array = array('5' => array('0' => 4, '3' => 6, '8' => 7), '10' => array('4' => 3, '5' => 10')); Currently I'm traversing this with foreach($array as $key1 => $value) { foreach($value as $key2 => $value) { // Use $key1, $key2, and $value here } } My question is how does this translate into the C code I will have to write? If anyone has a decent extension building tutorial that would be great too. Regards, -Josh ____________________________________ Joshua Kehn | Josh.Kehn@gmail.com http://joshuakehn.com
