array_pop() pops and returns the last value of the array, shortening the array by one element. If array is empty (or is not an array), NULL will be returned.
This function will reset() the array pointer after use.
<?php
$stack = array("orange", "banana", "apple", "raspberry");
$fruit = array_pop($stack);
print_r($stack);
?>After this, $stack will have only 3 elements:
<?php Array
(
[0] => orange
[1] => banana
[2] => apple
) ?>and raspberry will be assigned to $fruit.
This function may return Boolean FALSE, but may also return a non-Boolean value which evaluates to FALSE, such as 0 or "". Please read the section on Booleans for more information. Use the === operator for testing the return value of this function.
