Why is a deep copy function needed to move a sub array? I've just used the equality operator as
in the code below.
<?php
$a= array(
'a'=>'apple',
'b'=>'banana',
'c'=>'cherry',
'subArray'=>array(
'A'=>'APPLE',
'B'=>'BANANA',
'C'=>'CHERRY'
)
);
$a['copiedArray']= $a['subArray']; unset($a['subArray']);
var_dump($a);
?>
The above outputs the $a array with copiedArray being present and subArray gone. (php version:
4.4.0).
