This document lists and describes PHP array functions. It provides the function name, description, and syntax for common functions like array_push, array_pop, array_map, array_filter, and more. The functions allow manipulating arrays, sorting, searching, merging, splitting, and performing other common operations on PHP arrays in an easy way.
