1.2.303. Could Use array_sum()¶
These loops could use array_sum(). array_sum() loops over the array and sum all of its elements. It is a native PHP function, faster to execute and easier to read.
When the added elements are, in fact, arrays, use array_merge() instead of array_sum().
This is a micro-optimisation : it will speed up the code, but won’t bring large improvements.
<?php
$total = 0;
foreach($array as $b) {
$total = $total + $b;
}
?>
1.2.303.1. Suggestions¶
Replace the loop with a call to array_sum().
