Quick Reference
The PHP array_keys() function returns an array containing the keys.
<?php
$a = array('Car 1' => 'Lamborghini', 'Car 2' => 'Ferrari', 'Car 3' => 'Maserati');
print_r(array_keys($a));
?>
Note
Arrays count starting from zero NOT one. So item 1 is position [0], item 2 is position [1], and item 3 is position [2] … and so on.
Output
Array ( [0] => Car 1 [1] => Car 2 [2] => Car 3 )
Syntax
array_key_exists(key, array)

PHP Notes:
- When using PHP, single or double quotation marks are acceptable and work identically to one another; choose whichever you prefer, and stay consistent
- Arrays count starting from zero NOT one; so item 1 is position [0], item 2 is position [1], and item 3 is position [2] … and so on
