re-indexing an array

[home_spun]

Morning all,

I have the following array:
Array
(
[0] => 1
[1] => 2
[2] => 3
[6] => 27
[7] => 28
[8] => 29
[9] => 30
[10] => 21
)

is there a simple function that will reindex the array to be a normal incrementally indexed array ie.

Array
(
[0] => 1
[1] => 2
[2] => 3
[3] => 27
[4] => 28
[5] => 29
[6] => 30
[7] => 31
)

Cheers all.
HS

Howdy,

Thanks for the tip unfortunately it doesn't do exactly what I wanted. It returns the arrays index in an ordered array.

Instead I've written the following function:

function reIndexArray($array) {
    $count = "0";
    $new_array = array();
    foreach ($array as $key=>$item) {
        array_push($new_array, $item);
    }

    return $new_array;
}

which does the trick.

I was hoping for a more elegant solution.

Cheers,
HS

It returns the arrays index in an ordered array.

Have you actually tried using it?

$array = array_values($array);
