Examples

Example #1 reset() example

<?php

$array = array('step one', 'step two', 'step three', 'step four');

// by default, the pointer is on the first element
echo current($array) . "<br />\n"; // "step one"

// skip two steps
next($array);
next($array);
echo current($array) . "<br />\n"; // "step three"

Notes

Note: The return value for an empty array is indistinguishable from the return value in case of an array which has a boolean FALSE first element. To properly check the value of the first element of an array which may contain FALSE elements, first check the count() of the array, or check that key() is not NULL, after calling reset().
