Hi,
Why isn't there a function that acts like array_pop() returns a pair of
key-value rather than the value only ?
Reason is, that in order to pop the key-value pair, you do:
?php
$arr = array('a'=1,'b'=2,'c'=3,'d'=4);
$arr_keys = array_keys($arr);
$key = array_pop($arr_keys);
$value = $arr[$key];
?
I benchmarked array_keys() function and it is very slow on big arrays
since PHP has to build the array.
benchmark this:
end($arr);
list($key, $value) = each($arr);

array_pop also removes the element from the array so add one more line:
unset($arr[$key]);

Yeah, but he's not actually popping the last element of $arr, he's
just using it to get the last key from $arr_keys.

well, sorry, I didn't examine his code just read his original question
saying a function that acts like array_pop()
it's now up to him to decide whether he wants to unset that element or
not :)

since PHP has to build the array. While array_pop() can be acceleraed by
the guts of PHP engine.
