From: Operating system: PHP version: 5.3.6 Package: Arrays related Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Bug description:array_filter: optional parameter for max_items
Description: ------------ Per this discussion on StackOverflow, I would like to recommend an additional, optional parameter be supported in `array_filter`. The parameter, named `max_items` (or similar) would be expected as an integer value >0, and used to return a max of `n` matching items in the search array. This is useful in the case where sort order is non-deterministic and the number of desired items is low relative to the length of the search array.
