What's better to use in PHP, $array[] = $value or array_push($array, $value)?

Question

What\'s better to use in PHP for appending an array member,

$array[] = $value;

or

array_push($array, $value);

Answer 1

One difference is that you can call array_push() with more than two parameters, i.e. you can push more than one element at a time to an array.

$myArray = array();
array_push($myArray, 1,2,3,4);
echo join(',', $myArray);

prints 1,2,3,4
