What is array_key_exists() in PHP ?

The array_key_exists() function checks an array for a specified key, and returns true if the key exists and false if the key does not exist.
Tip: Remember that if you skip the key when you specify an array, an integer key is generated, starting at 0 and increases by 1 for each value. (See example 2)


array_key_exists(key,array)

ParameterDescription
keyRequired. Specifies the key
arrayRequired. Specifies an array

<?php
$a=array("Volvo"=>"XC90","BMW"=>"X5");
if (array_key_exists("Volvo",$a))
  {
  echo "Key exists!";
  }
else
  {
  echo "Key does not exist!";
  }
?>
