note 89724 added to function.array-flip

Finding the longest string in an array? <?php function longest_string_in_array($array) { $mapping = array_combine($array, array_map('strlen', $array)); return array_keys($mapping, max($mapping)); } ?> Differences are obvious: returns an array of [i]all[/i] of the longest strings, instead of just picking one arbitrarily. Doesn't do the stripslashing or magic stuff because that's another job for for another function. ---- Server IP: 212.199.163.191 Probable Submitter: 114.134.161.9 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-flip.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/89724 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89724/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89724/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89724/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89724/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89724/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89724/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/89724 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/89724 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
