(PHP 4, PHP 5)
array_unshift — 在数组开头插入一个或多个单元
array_unshift() 将传入的单元插入到
array 数组的开头。注意单元是作为整体被插入的，因此传入单元将保持同样的顺序。所有的数值键名将修改为从零开始重新计数，所有的文字键名保持不变。
array
输入的数组。
var
开头插入的变量。
返回 array 数组新的单元数目。
Example #1 array_unshift() 例子
<?php
$queue = array("orange", "banana");
array_unshift($queue, "apple", "raspberry");
print_r($queue);
?>
以上例程会输出：
Array
(
[0] => apple
[1] => raspberry
[2] => orange
[3] => banana
)

Sahn's example almost works but has a small error. Try it like this if you need to prepend something to the array without the keys being reindexed and/or need to prepend a key value pair, you can use this short function:
<?php
function array_unshift_assoc(&$arr, $key, $val)
{
$arr = array_reverse($arr, true);
$arr[$key] = $val;
return = array_reverse($arr, true);
}
?>

This function inserts a element in any position of the Array, by reference.
NOTE: The array is converted for a numeric array.
<?php
/**
* Function array_insert().
*
* Returns the new number of the elements in the array.
*
* @param array $array Array (by reference)
* @param mixed $value New element
* @param int $offset Position
* @return int
*/
function array_insert(&$array, $value, $offset)
{
if (is_array($array)) {
$array = array_values($array);
$offset = intval($offset);
if ($offset < 0 || $offset >= count($array)) {
array_push($array, $value);
} elseif ($offset == 0) {
array_unshift($array, $value);
} else {
$temp = array_slice($array, 0, $offset);
array_push($temp, $value);
$array = array_slice($array, $offset);
$array = array_merge($temp, $array);
}
} else {
$array = array($value);
}
return count($array);
}
?>

You can preserve keys and unshift an array with numerical indexes in a really simple way if you'll do the following:
<?php
$someArray=array(224=>'someword1', 228=>'someword2', 102=>'someword3', 544=>'someword3',95=>'someword4');
$someArray=array(100=>'Test Element 1 ',255=>'Test Element 2')+$someArray;
?>
now the array looks as follows:
array(
100=>'Test Element 1 ',
255=>'Test Element 2'
224=>'someword1',
228=>'someword2',
102=>'someword3',
544=>'someword3',
95=>'someword4'
);

This becomes a nice little problem if you index your arrays out of order (while manually sorting). For example:
<?php
$recordMonths[3] = '8/%/2006';
$recordMonths[4] = '7/%/2004';
$recordMonths[0] = '3/%/2007';
$recordMonths[1] = '2/%/2007';
$recordMonths[5] = '12/%/2000';
$recordMonths[6] = '11/%/2000';
$recordMonths[7] = '10/%/2000';
$recordMonths[2] = '1/%/2007';
for($i = 0; $i < count($recordMonths); $i++)
{
$singleMonth = $recordMonths[$i];
echo "singleMonth: $singleMonth <br />";
}
array_unshift($recordMonths,'%');
for($i = 0; $i < count($recordMonths); $i++)
{
$singleMonth = $recordMonths[$i];
echo "singleMonth: $singleMonth <br />";
}
?>
Produces:
singleMonth: 3/%/2007
singleMonth: 2/%/2007
singleMonth: 1/%/2007
singleMonth: 8/%/2006
singleMonth: 7/%/2004
singleMonth: 12/%/2000
singleMonth: 11/%/2000
singleMonth: 10/%/2000
singleMonth: %
singleMonth: 8/%/2006
singleMonth: 7/%/2004
singleMonth: 3/%/2007
singleMonth: 2/%/2007
singleMonth: 12/%/2000
singleMonth: 11/%/2000
singleMonth: 10/%/2000
singleMonth: 1/%/2007
It reindexes them based on the order they were created. It seems like if an array has all numeric indexes, then it should reindex them based on the order of their index. Just my opinion...
John Brooking (2006-06-02 18:54:23)
I had a need tonight to convert a numeric array from 1-based to 0-based, and found that the following worked just fine due to the "side effect" of renumbering:
<?php
array_unshift( $myArray, array_shift( $myArray ));
?>
php at electricsurfer dot com (2004-02-26 18:20:45)
even simpler unshifting of a reference !
<?php
/**
* @return int
* @param $array array
* @param $value mixed
* @desc Prepend a reference to an element to the beginning of an array. Renumbers numeric keys, so $value is always inserted to $array[0]
*/
function array_unshift_ref(&$array, &$value)
{
$return = array_unshift($array,'');
$array[0] =& $value;
return $return;
}
?>

Last version of PHP deprecated unshifting of a reference.
You can use this function instead :
<?php
function array_unshift1 (& $ioArray, $iValueWrappedInAnArray) {
$lNewArray = false;
foreach (array_keys ($ioArray) as $lKey)
$lNewArray[$lKey+1] = & $ioArray[$lKey];
$ioArray = array (& $iValueWrappedInAnArray[0]);
if ($lNewArray)
foreach (array_keys ($lNewArray) as $lKey)
$ioArray[] = & $lNewArray[$lKey];
return count($ioArray);
}
// before last PHP (now generates a deprecation warning)
array_unshift ($a, &$v);
// since last PHP (caution, there is a wrapping array !!)
array_unshift1 ($a, array (&$v));
?>

If you need to change the name of a key without changing its position in the array this function may be useful.
<?php
function array_key_change($Old, $New, $In, $NewVal=NULL) {
$Temp = array();
while(isset($Temp[$Old]) == false) {
list($k, $v) = each($In);
$Temp[$k] = $v;
unset($In[$k]);
}
if($NewVal == NULL) {
$NewVal = $Temp[$Old];
}
unset($Temp[$Old]);
$Temp = array_reverse($Temp);
$In = array_merge(array($New=>$NewVal), $In);
while(list($k,$v) = each($Temp)) {
$In = array_merge(array($k=>$v), $In);
}
return($In);
}
?>

array_merge() will also reindex (see array_merge() manual entry), but the '+' operator won't, so...
<?php
$arrayone=array("newkey"=>"newvalue") + $arrayone;
?>
does the job.
TimHyde at C21Technology dot com (2002-07-18 05:04:26)
A simpler way to implement an array_unshift with key=>value pairs (i.e. similar to the example using array_reverse above) is to use array_merge. i.e.
<?php
$arrayone=array_merge(array("newkey"=>"newvalue"),$arrayone);
?>
Obviously you need to take care when adding numeric or duplicate keys.
robert dot wills at fuzzbrain dot uklinux dot net (2002-02-07 06:02:55)
Actually this problem with the keys getting reindexed only happens when the keys are numerical:
<?php
$a = array("f"=>"five", "s" =>"six", "t" =>
"twenty");
print_r($a);
echo "\n";
foreach($a as $key=>$val)
{
echo "k: $key v: $val \n";
}
array_unshift($a, "zero");
print_r($a);
echo "\n";
foreach($a as $key=>$val)
{
echo "k: $key v: $val \n";
}
?>
Array
(
[f] => five
[s] => six
[t] => twenty
)
k: f v: five
k: s v: six
k: t v: twenty
Array
(
[0] => zero
[f] => five
[s] => six
[t] => twenty
)
k: 0 v: zero
k: f v: five
k: s v: six
k: t v: twenty

matt at synergie dot net (2000-09-18 22:20:49)
The behaviour of unshift nearly caught me out.
Not only is the item added at the start of the list but the list is re-indexed too.
<?php
$a = array(5=>"five", 6 =>"six", 20 => "twenty");
while(list($key, $value) = each($a))
echo "k: $key v: $value<BR>\n";
echo "<BR>\n";
array_unshift($a, "zero");
while(list($key, $value) = each($a))
echo "k: $key v: $value<BR>\n";
?>
k: 5 v: five
k: 6 v: six
k: 20 v: twenty
k: 0 v: zero
k: 1 v: five
k: 2 v: six
k: 3 v: twenty
