Question

I have an array that is structured like this:

[33] => Array
    (
        [time] => 1285571561
        [user] => test0
    )

[34] => Array

Answer 1

Example 1:

$arr = array("a"=>"a", "5"=>"b", "c", "key"=>"d", "lastkey"=>"e");
print_r(end($arr));

Output = e

---

Example 2:

ARRAY without key(s)

$arr = array("a", "b", "c", "d", "e");
print_r(array_slice($arr, -1, 1, true));
// output is = array( [4] => e ) 

---

Example 3:

ARRAY with key(s)

$arr = array("a"=>"a", "5"=>"b", "c", "key"=>"d", "lastkey"=>"e");
print_r(array_slice($arr, -1, 1, true));
// output is = array ( [lastkey] => e )

Example 4:

If your array keys like : [0] [1] [2] [3] [4] ... etc. You can use this:

$arr = array("a","b","c","d","e");
$lastindex = count($arr)-1;
print_r($lastindex);

Output = 4

Example 5: But if you are not sure!

$arr = array("a"=>"a", "5"=>"b", "c", "key"=>"d", "lastkey"=>"e");
$ar_k = array_keys($arr);
$lastindex = $ar_k [ count($ar_k) - 1 ];
print_r($lastindex);

Output = lastkey
