Set is the collection of unique values. The implementation of Ds\Set is similar to the Ds\Map which creates a hash table. The values of Ds\Set are used as key and the mapped values are ignored.
Requirements: PHP 7 is required for both extension and the compatibility polyfill.
Installation: The easiest way to install data structure by using the PECL extension.
pecl install ds
Syntax:
public Ds\Set::functionName()
Example: Below programs illustrate the Ds\Set::count() function:
PHP
<?php // Declare new Set $set = new \Ds\Set([10, 15, 21]); // Display the Set element var_dump( $set ); // Display count of elements // present in the Set echo "Count is : " ; print_r( $set -> count ()); ?> |
Output:
object(Ds\Set)#1 (3) { [0]=> int(10) [1]=> int(15) [2]=> int(21) } Count is : 3
