Question

i have an array of undefined size, for example :

<?php
$array["foo"] = 86 ;
$array["bar"] = 49 ;
$array["matt"] = 96 ;
?>

i don’t want to disturb array’s internal pointer , but want to get a COPY of second last value of array instead.

Answer 1

I don’t know, why you use a map, when in fact you want an ordered list instead, but

$tmp = array_values($array);
echo $tmp[count($tmp) -2];

should do it. With php5.4 this should work either

echo array_values($array)[count($array)-2];
