Hi!
What about array_diff(array("Array"), array(array()))? To me the sole act of having an array in it is an almost sure indication that the code is wrong somewhere... IMO it deserves a notice.
That one would have the arrays different. Having multi-dimensonal arrays is not an error, comparing arrays of different structure is not an error either. Consider expression: "a" == array(). Is it an error? No, it's just a false expression. In the same way all comparisons where you compare string to array should just say it's not equal, since we know they're not equal. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Software Architect SugarCRM: http://www.sugarcrm.com/ (408)454-6900 ext. 227
