Checking during array iteration, if the current element is the last element

Question

Please help me to translate this pseudo-code to real php code:

 foreach ($arr as $k => $v)
    if ( THIS IS NOT THE LAST ELEMENT IN THE ARRAY)
        doS         


        

Answer 1

If the items are numerically ordered, use the key() function to determine the index of the current item and compare it to the length. You'd have to use next() or prev() to cycle through items in a while loop instead of a for loop:

$length = sizeOf($arr);
while (key(current($arr)) != $length-1) {
    $v = current($arr); doSomething($v); //do something if not the last item
    next($myArray); //set pointer to next item
}

Answer 2

$arr = array(1, 'a', 3, 4 => 1, 'b' => 1);
foreach ($arr as $key => $val) {
    echo "{$key} = {$val}" . (end(array_keys($arr))===$key ? '' : ', ');
}
// output: 0 = 1, 1 = a, 2 = 3, 4 = 1, b = 1
