Below programs illustrate the ArrayIterator::offsetSet() function in PHP:

Program 1:




<?php
  
// Declare an ArrayIterator
$arrItr = new ArrayIterator(
    array(
        "a" => 4,
        "b" => 2,
        "g" => 8,
        "d" => 6,
        "e" => 1,
        "f" => 9
    )
);
  
// Update the value at index 1 
$arrItr->offsetSet("g", "Geeks"); 
    
// Print the updated ArrayObject 
print_r($arrItr); 
  
?>


Output:

ArrayIterator Object
(
    [storage:ArrayIterator:private] => Array
        (
            [a] => 4
            [b] => 2
            [g] => Geeks
            [d] => 6
            [e] => 1
            [f] => 9
        )

)

Program 2:




<?php
     
// Declare an ArrayIterator
$arrItr = new ArrayIterator(
    array(
        "for", "Geeks", "Science",
        "Geeks", "Portal", "Computer"
    )
);
    
// Update the value at index 1 
$arrItr->offsetSet(1, "neveropen"); 
    
// Print the updated ArrayObject 
print_r($arrItr); 
  
?>


Output:

ArrayIterator Object
(
    [storage:ArrayIterator:private] => Array
        (
            [0] => for
            [1] => neveropen
            [2] => Science
            [3] => Geeks
            [4] => Portal
            [5] => Computer
        )
