Does PHP have built-in data structures?

Question

I\'m looking at the PHP Manual, and I\'m not seeing a section on data structures that most languages have, such as lists and sets. Am I just blind or does PHP not have anything

Answer 1

PHP's array doubles as both a list and a dictionary.

$myArray = array("Apples", "Oranges", "Pears");
$myScalar = $myArray[0] // == "Apples"

Or to use it as an associative array:

$myArray = array("a"=>"Apples", "b"=>"Oranges", "c"=>"Pears");
$myScalar = $myArray["a"] // == "Apples"
