Evaluating array content (PHP, XenForo)

I'm having few troubles when evaluating an array data to filter some content. I'm sending to the template an array with few numbers (1,4,5,10,12,14,20 - for example) and then i want to filter if it has a specific value.

Let's say i want to know if it has '2' as a single value. What would be the best method?

I was using (strpos ($array, '2') !== false) but then i noticed that it checks if 2 is inside the array and not if it's just '2', so it returned true.

I need to be able to evaluate if '2' is specified as '2' and not if it's on the array string (like on '20' or '12').

PS: Although using xenforo(zend), any answer on php should be enough.

Hope you can help, Thanks!

Solution

  • If you want to know whether value is in array:

    in_array($needle, $haystack)

    If you want to get all values having given value:

    array_filter($haystack, $filteringFunction)
