I want to propose a new PHP array method, called has_numeric_keys (or something similar/better), that would have the following method signature: bool has_numeric_keys(array $array) The reason for it is to check if the array passed to it only had numeric keys.
Interesting. If you want to check that your argument has numeric keys *only*, you should change the function's name. For a better consistency, may I suggest a function that would allow to know whether array keys are all numeric, all strings, or mixed. Something like array_keys_type() returning one of 3 predefined constants : ARRAY_KEYS_NUMERIC, ARRAY_KEYS_STRING, ARRAY_KEYS_MIXED. Regards François
