## Arrays
|
|
|
|
### Types Of Arrays
|
|
In PHP there are three types of arrays: Indexed Arrays, Associative arrays, and Multidimensional arrays.
|
|
|
|
### Indexed Array Example
|
|
An indexed array accesses objects by index number.
|
|
```PHP
|
|
<?php
|
|
$freecodecamp = array("free", "code", "camp");
|
|
```
|
|
`$freecodecamp[0]` would return `"free"`, `$freecodecamp[1]` would return `"code"`, and `$freecodecamp[2]` would return `"camp"`.
|
|
|
|
### Associative Array Example
|
|
An associative array accesses objects by key name.
|
|
```PHP
|
|
<?php
|
|
$freecodecamp = array("free"=>"0","code"=>"1","camp"=>"2");
|
|
```
|
|
`$freecodecamp['free']` would return "0", `$freecodecamp['code']` would return "1", `$freecodecamp['camp']` would return "2",
|
|
|
|
### Multidimensional Array Example
|
|
A multidimensional array is an array that contains other arrays.
|
|
```PHP
|
|
<?php
|
|
$freecodecamp = array(array("free"=>"0","code"=>"1","camp"=>"2"),array("free"=>"0","code"=>"1","camp"=>"2"),array("free"=>"0","code"=>"1","camp"=>"2"));
|
|
```
|
