Bug description: Bogus example given for array_merge()
Description:
------------
Para 3 of the text reads:
"If only one [associative] array is given ... duplicate entries will be
merged into the last one. See example three for details."
And example 3 shows:
$array_two = array("jay" => "bob", "randal" => "dante", "jay" =>
"jason");
$result_two = array_merge($array_two);
print_r($result_two);
Since when has an associative array been able to contain duplicated keys
("jay", in this case)? The array_merge() in the given example is a
complete no-op, as a print_r($array_two) shows.
Since "duplicate entries" never occur in associative arrays, there doesn't
seem to be much point discussing what happens when array_merge() encounters
them.
