note 69460 added to ref.array

Maybe I'm a doofus, or maybe a function like this isn't necessary in the 'real world', but I needed (and couldn't find) a function to get the KEY of the Longest VALUE in an Array. It could probably (definitely?) be done better, but I made this for the time being: <?php /* Get KEY of Longest (string) VALUE in an ARRAY... */ function array_get_longest($array) { $longest = 0; for($i=0; $i < count($array); $i++) { if (strlen($array[$i]) > strlen($array[$longest])) { $longest = $i; } } //return strlen($array[$longest]); // Length (string) of the Longest VALUE. return $longest; // KEY of Longest (string) VALUE. } ?> Please let me know if I've overlooked something, or if this could be done better. Thanks. ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 199.82.243.71 (proxied: 199.81.66.74) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.array.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/69460 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69460/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69460/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69460/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69460/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69460/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69460/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/69460 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/69460 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
