Example of array_key_exists function

<?php
$a=array("Honda"=>"XC90","BMW"=>"X5");
if (array_key_exists("Honda",$a))
  {
  echo "Key exists!";
  }
else
  {
  echo "Key does not exist!";
  }
?>

In the above example, the array_key_exists checks for the “Honda” key in the array.

<?php
$a=array("Volvo","BMW");
if (array_key_exists(0,$a))
  {
  echo "Key exists!";
  }
else
  {
  echo "Key does not exist!";
  }
?>

In the above example, the name (string) of the key is not specified in the function. In this case, when no string is specified to the array_key_exists function, it assumes the integer key that starts from 0 and increments for every key in the specified array.
