array_push syntax

[james438]

here is the example from php.net:

<?php
$stack = array("orange", "banana");
array_push($stack, "apple", "raspberry");
print_r($stack);
?>
What I want is to put the variables "apple" and "raspberry" into a variable or array as in


<?php
$fruit2="apple,raspberry";
$stack = array("orange", "banana");
array_push($stack, $fruit2);
print_r($stack);
?>
While the above works I am not sure as to what the correct syntax should be. Does this look correct? Somehow I figure there should be escaped quotes in $fruit2.

It should be:


<?php
$fruit_a = "apple";
$fruit_b = "raspberry";
$stack = array("orange", "banana");
array_push($stack, $fruit_a, $fruit_b);
print_r($stack);
?>

Or else apple and rasperry is one value.

Thanks. It looks like I am using the wrong function then. I am now using array_merge.

Array_push is all but useless: it is just like $array[] = ...

Maybe it would be shorter syntax for many variables but that is about all.

@djr33
I've discovered the same thing. Javacript should also have a '[]' suffix (is that the right word?).
