Today's post is about Arrays and Indexers in Phalanger (PHP). Here below you will find a very easy to follow program, that demonstrate arrays and indexer, by implementing some simple tasks that will make you grasp the idea of those 2 features real quick. The main goal of this post, is not really teaching arrays because, come on, you probably already know "all" about them, in fact, it is more to show you how you do that in Phalanger (PHP), in this case, compared to all other 22 languages on future posts, which essentially, is the real aim behind this blog.
This is the first post of a "dynamic" language implemented for the DLR. You will notice that the code structure its slightly different from previous posts. Besides that, because Phalanger is PHP, it is definitely better to use PHP's array type instead of System\Array, implemented in Phalanger as PhpArray which at the end, stores the data as a Dictionary<object,object>.
By the way, if you missed my most recent post, "New Series - Arrays and Indexers", check it out. It has more details about the following program, and a bunch of definitions for the concepts used on this, and the following, posts. Or you can check my previous posts about arrays in C# and C++ just to compare.
I encourage you to copy the code below and try it yourself, normally, all programs you find in this blog are source code complete, just paste it on your IDE and run it.
There is room for improvement of the code, using generics is one example, but Generics, Collections, lambdas, etc. will have their own "series" of posts.
