Re: tailinchu[at]gmail[dot]com
This is not a good idea, because this simple line causes two filesystem operations, where only one
would be required. This is not only bad style, but on a directory with many files, you will
definitely feel the delay.
If you want to be sure to work on an array, you better use typecasting, rather than a ternary
operator. This has better performance, and is even less code:
<?php $files = (array)glob('*.txt'); ?>
