How to get the highest and lowest value items of an array?
I have an array in PHP which output like this:
Array ( [0] => 180.99 [1] => 140 [2] => 200.45 )
The numbers can be decimals because they are prices.
For example, I want to show that the product has price ranging from 140 to 200 . How can I use that unordered array to find the min, max price within it?
Thank you
Something like using these special functions - min and max - will be helpful, perhaps?
$arr = array(180.99, 140, 200.45);
$min = min($arr);
echo $min; // 140
$max = max($arr);
echo $max; // 200.45
You can use the min and max functions as:
$arr = array(180, 140, 200);
$min = min($arr);
$max = max($arr);
echo "this price range is between $" . min($array) . " and $" . max($array);
do you mean min() and max()
you can order the array, using sort, and then access the first and last element, of the sorted array.
$arr = array(180, 140, 200);
sort($arr);
echo $arr[0]; //first element
echo end($arr); //last element
you can also use, min() and max() functions like this,
$arr = array(180, 140, 200);
echo min($arr); //min element
echo max($arr); //max element
$array = array(180, 140, 200);
echo 'Min: ' . min($array) . "
";
echo 'Max: ' . max($array) . "
";
