search a php array for partial string match

Question

I have an array and I\'d like to search for the string \'green\'. So in this case it should return the $arr[2]

$arr = array(0 =>         


        

Answer 1

function check($string) 
{
    foreach($arr as $a) {
        if(strpos($a,$string) !== false) {
            return true;
        } 
    }
    return false;
}
