Quick note when using count with for-loop and arrays.
Count starts at 1, unlike how arrays start at 0.
Testing -
var_dump(count(["hi"])); displayed 1
So, yea be sure to handle this before using it like the following:
$array = ["hi", "hello", "hey"];
for($index=0; $index<count($array); $index++){
$array[$index]=/*do something here*/;
}
As, that for-loop will really look like:
for($index=0; $index<3; $index){
//Which also means, the following line will occur at some point
$array[3]=/*do something here*/;
}
Of course, this would throw some type of out-of-bounds exception.
