each ASSOC_ARRAY
Returns a 2 element array consisting of the key and value for the next
value of an associative array, so that you can iterate over it.
Entries are returned in an apparently random order. When the array is
entirely read, a null array is returned (which when assigned produces a
FALSE (0) value). The next call to each() after that will start
iterating again. The iterator can be reset only by reading all the
elements from the array. You should not add elements to an array while
you're iterating over it. There is a single iterator for each
associative array, shared by all each(), keys() and values() function
calls in the program. The following prints out your environment like
the printenv(1) program, only in a different order:
while (($key,$value) = each %ENV) {
print "$key=$value\n";
}
See also keys() and values().
