To add to the chaos (or perhaps clarification) of these notes, here's another
is_associative_array() function that I made and use..
<?php
function is_associative_array( $var ) {
return is_array( $var ) && !is_numeric( implode( array_keys( $var ) ) );
}
?>
I guess with this logic you could do the following too:
<?php
function is_sequential_array( $var ) {
return is_array( $var ) && is_numeric( implode( array_keys( $var ) ) );
}
?>
I never saw a reason to check if it was empty because if it is, the type seems inconsequential.
