Question

Is it possible to limit the number of members in an array, like LIMIT in MySQL? For instance, if I have $array with x members, and I only want to return the first 50 of them, how do I do that?

Should I use a combination of count() and array_slice(), or is there a simpler way?

Answer 1

Using array_slice should do the trick.

array_slice($array, 0, 50); // same as offset 0 limit 50 in sql
