Quick Reference
The PHP array_walk() function runs each array element in a user-defined function with the array’s keys and values as parameters in the function.
<?php
function my_function($value, $key, $param) {
echo $key . $param . $value;
echo '<br>';
}
$a = array('Car 1' => 'Lamborghini', 'Car 2' => 'Ferrari', 'Car 3' => 'Maserati');
array_walk($a, 'my_function', '- has the value ');
?>
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
Car 1 - has the value Lamborghini
Car 2 - has the value Ferrari
Car 3 - has the value Maserati

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
