Let’s see PHP program:
Program 1:
<?php // PHP program to demonstrate working of each() // for simple array.   // input array contain some elements inside. $a = array("Ram", "Shita", "Geeta");   // each() function return in the array with four elements // Two elements (1 and Value) for the element value which // are Ram, and two elements (0 and Key) for the element // key which are not given here so output is zero. print_r (each($a));   // Next set is printed as cursor is moved print_r (each($a)); ?> |
Output:
Array
(
[1] => Ram
[value] => Ram
[0] => 0
[key] => 0
)
Array
(
[1] => Shita
[value] => Shita
[0] => 1
[key] => 1
)
Program 2:
<?php // PHP program to demonstrate working of each() // for associative array.   $a = array("101"=>"Ram", "105"=>"Geeta", "104"=>"Geek");   // each() function return in the array with four elements // Two elements (1 and Value) for the element value which // are Ram, and two elements (0 and Key) for the element // key which are Boy. print_r (each($a));   // Next set is printed as cursor is moved print_r (each($a)); ?> |
Output:

[1] => Ram
[value] => Ram
[0] => 101
[key] => 101
