Question

I want to get the highest value of my array.
This are the two ways when I’m working with php functions.

$a = array(1,125,1068); 
1.  $value = max($a);  
    print_r ($value);

2.  asort($a);
    $value = end($a);
    print_r ($value);

I just couldn’t figure out how to get the highest value when using loops.

Answer 1

You do it like this:

$highest = 0;
//if you have negative values: $highest = min($a);
foreach($a as $item){
    if ($item > $highest){
        $highest = $item;
    }
}
