note 102208 added to function.in-array

After reading all other notes about performance, I made a little test. fill an array in a loop with random characters, shuffle it search on it using 4 methods. I tried to have haystack as array and string; hence the strstr. I tried it on 9, 99, 999, 9999 elements and the results remain in the same order: 9999 elements Function : execution time in miliseconds. strstr : 1.2994079589844 fast_in_array : 1.0655579566956 isset : 0.99128198623657 //Winner, used from another note here. in_array : 2.9410798549652 One last detail, I moved my functions around in the script to make sure there was no memory caching, reiteration op or whatever, it's all the same. in_array is the slowest and the use of isset($array[$NEEDLE]) the fastest. I hope it saves somebody else the trouble. ---- Server IP: 69.147.83.197 Probable Submitter: 74.59.92.152 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.in-array.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/102208 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102208/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102208/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102208/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102208/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102208/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102208/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/102208 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/102208 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
