I wrote this function for use with 'latest scores' on a quiz site, but it has many potential uses. <?php /** * @desc array_push and removes elements from the beginning of the array until it is within limit * @param array Array to push on to * @param mixed Passed to array push as 2nd parameter * @param int Limit (default = 10) * * @return array New array */ function array_push_limit($array,$add,$limit=10){ array_push($array, $add); do { array_shift($array); $size=count($array); } while($size > $limit); return $array; } ?> ---------- EXAMPLE: ---------- <?php $array=array(1, -5, 23, -66, 33, 54, 3); print_r(array_push_limit($array, "HELLO", 4)); ?> ---------- OUTPUT: ---------- Array ( [0] => 33 [1] => 54 [2] => 3 [3] => HELLO ) ---- Server IP: 208.69.120.35 Probable Submitter: 172.213.198.214 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-push.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/81208 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81208/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81208/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81208/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81208/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81208/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81208/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/81208 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/81208 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
