PHP Bug Type: Documentation problem
Bug description: Array splice does not document the key renumbering it performs
Description:
------------
The array_splice documentation doesn't warn about the fact that
array_splice will change the keys of the original array. This occurs
whenever the spliced in array and removed array are of a different size.
For example in the code below you can see that the key for 'f' has been
changed by the array_splice operation.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$a = array('a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f');
Array
(
[0] => a
[1] => b
[2] => c
[3] => d
[4] => e
[5] => f
)
array_splice($a, 2, 2, array('g', 'h', 'i'));
Array
(
[0] => a
[1] => b
[2] => g
[3] => h
[4] => i
[5] => e
[6] => f
)
