range — 建立一个包含指定范围单元的数组
$start
, mixed $limit
[, number $step
= 1
] )建立一个包含指定范围单元的数组。
start
序列的第一个值。
limit
序列结束于 limit
的值。
step
如果给出了 step
的值,它将被作为单元之间的步进值。step
应该为正值。如果未指定,step
则默认为 1。
返回的数组中从
start
到 limit
的单元,包括它们本身。
版本 | 说明 |
---|---|
5.0.0 |
添加了可选参数 step 。
|
4.1.0 to 4.3.2 | 在 PHP 版本 4.1.0 到 4.3.2 中, range() 将数字字符串看作字符串而不是整数,因此将会被作为字符序列使用。例如,"4242" 会被当作 "4" 来对待。 |
4.1.0 | 在版本 4.1.0 之前 range() 函数只产生递增的整数数组。对于字符序列和递减数组的支持是 4.1.0 加入的。字符序列值的长度限定为一。如果输入的长度超过一,则只使用第一个字符。 |
Example #1 range() 例子
<?php
// array(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
foreach ( range ( 0 , 12 ) as $number ) {
echo $number ;
}
// The step parameter was introduced in 5.0.0
// array(0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100)
foreach ( range ( 0 , 100 , 10 ) as $number ) {
echo $number ;
}
// Use of character sequences introduced in 4.1.0
// array('a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e', 'f', 'g', 'h', 'i');
foreach ( range ( 'a' , 'i' ) as $letter ) {
echo $letter ;
}
// array('c', 'b', 'a');
foreach ( range ( 'c' , 'a' ) as $letter ) {
echo $letter ;
}
?>

The function will generate an array of integers even if your numerical parameters are enclosed in quotes.
<?php
var_dump( range('1', '2') ); // outputs array(2) { [0]=> int(1) [1]=> int(2) }
?>
An easy way to get an array of strings is to map strval() to the range:
<?php
var_dump( array_map('strval', range('1', '2')) ); // outputs array(2) { [0]=> string(1) "1" [1]=> string(1) "2" }
?>

I needed a function, that creates a letter range with arbitrary length.
You specify via the $length parameter, how many entries you need.
Logic is analog to the logic of the column-titles in a calc-sheet.
<?php
function createLetterRange($length)
{
$range = array();
$letters = range('A', 'Z');
for($i=0; $i<$length; $i++)
{
$position = $i*26;
foreach($letters as $ii => $letter)
{
$position++;
if($position <= $length)
$range[] = ($position > 26 ? $range[$i-1] : '').$letter;
}
}
return $range;
}
?>

So with the introduction of single-character ranges to the range() function, the internal function tries to be "smart", and (I am inferring from behavior here) apparently checks the type of the incoming values. If one is numeric, including numeric string, then the other is treated as numeric; if it is a non-numeric string, it is treated as zero.
But.
If you pass in a numeric string in such a way that is is forced to be recognized as type string and not type numeric, range() will function quite differently.
Compare:
<?php
echo implode("",range(9,"Q"));
// prints 9876543210
echo implode("",range("9 ","Q")); //space after the 9
// prints 9:;<=>?@ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQ
echo implode("",range("q","9 "));
// prints qponmlkjihgfedcba`_^]\[ZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA@?>=<;:987654
?>
I wouldn't call this a bug, because IMO it is even more useful than the stock usage of the function.

Despite the line above that says that the $step value should be "given as a positive number," the range() function will in fact correctly handle reversed (decrementing) ranges. For example:
<?php print_r( range( 24, 20 ) ); ?>
Array
(
[0] => 24
[1] => 23
[2] => 22
[3] => 21
[4] => 20
)
<?php print_r( range( 20, 11, -3 ) ); ?>
Array
(
[0] => 20
[1] => 17
[2] => 14
[3] => 11
)
It will actually ignore the sign of the $step argument, and determine whether to increment or decrement based purely on whether $start > $end or $end > $start. For example:
<?php print_r( range( 20, 11, 3 ) ); ?>
Array
(
[0] => 20
[1] => 17
[2] => 14
[3] => 11
)
<?php print_r( range( 11, 20, -3 ) ); ?>
Array
(
[0] => 11
[1] => 14
[2] => 17
[3] => 20
)

To create a simple array or a multidimensional array with defined size and null values??, use this expression:
<?php
$SimpleArray = array_map(function($n) { return null; }, range(1, 3) );
$MultiArray = array_map(function($n) { return array_map(function($n) { return null; }, range(1, 2) ); }, range(1, 3) );
var_dump($SimpleArray);
var_dump($MultiArray);
// And will print:
?>
>>$SimpleArray
array(3) {
[0]=> NULL
[1]=> NULL
[2]=> NULL
}
>>$MultiArray
array(3) {
[0]=> array(2) {
[0]=> NULL
[1]=> NULL
}
[1]=> array(2) {
[0]=> NULL
[1]=> NULL
}
[2]=> array(2) {
[0]=> NULL
[1]=> NULL
}
}
?>

I've been introduced with range() function not so long ago, and I found that examples about it is somewhat wrong, even inefficient:
<?php
$o = "";
$time_start = microtime(true);
foreach(range(1, 10000) as $val) {
$o .= $val;
}
$time_end = microtime(true);
$time = $time_end - $time_start;
echo 'rangein: '.$time.'<br />';
$o = "";
$time_start = microtime(true);
$a = range(1, 10000);
foreach($a as $val) {
$o .= $val;
}
$time_end = microtime(true);
$time = $time_end - $time_start;
echo 'rangeout: '.$time.'<br />';
?>
Which gives results:
rangein: 0.0025348663330078
rangeout: 0.0019199848175049
In some cases difference is even bigger and proportional to the range generated. I suppose that results of range() are cached/hashed.
Note: execution order does affects execution times, but difference still exists

Interestingly, these two statements produce identical 26-character alphabet arrays.

[#9] gtisza at gmail dot com [2013-04-25 10:27:44]
You might expect range($n, $n-1) to be an empty array (as in e.g. Python) but actually PHP will assume a step of -1 if start is larger than end.

To create a range array like
Array
(
[11] => 1
[12] => 2
[13] => 3
[14] => 4
)
combine two range arrays using array_combine:
array_combine(range(11,14),range(1,4))
[#11] ktamas77 at gmail dot com [2012-08-03 22:59:08]
if you need zero padding, string prefixes or any other masks, then a simple combination of array_map, inline functions and sprintf is your friend.
<?php
$a = array_map(function($n) { return sprintf('sample_%03d', $n); }, range(50, 59) );
print_r($a);
?>
Will result:
Array
(
[0] => sample_050
[1] => sample_051
[2] => sample_052
[3] => sample_053
[4] => sample_054
[5] => sample_055
[6] => sample_056
[7] => sample_057
[8] => sample_058
[9] => sample_059

So, I needed a quick and dirty way to create a dropdown select for hours, minutes and seconds using 2 digit formatting, and to create those arrays of data, I combined range with array merge..
<?php
$prepend = array('00','01','02','03','04','05','06','07','08','09');
$hours = array_merge($prepend,range(10, 23));
$minutes = array_merge($prepend,range(10, 59));
$seconds = $minutes;
?>
Super simple.

Ever wanted to generate an array with a range of column names for use in Excel file related parsing?
I've wrote a function that starts at the A column and adds column names up until the column you specified.
<?php
function createColumnsArray($end_column, $first_letters = '')
{
$columns = array();
$length = strlen($end_column);
$letters = range('A', 'Z');
// Iterate over 26 letters.
foreach ($letters as $letter) {
// Paste the $first_letters before the next.
$column = $first_letters . $letter;
// Add the column to the final array.
$columns[] = $column;
// If it was the end column that was added, return the columns.
if ($column == $end_column)
return $columns;
}
// Add the column children.
foreach ($columns as $column) {
// Don't itterate if the $end_column was already set in a previous itteration.
// Stop iterating if you've reached the maximum character length.
if (!in_array($end_column, $columns) && strlen($column) < $length) {
$new_columns = createColumnsArray($end_column, $column);
// Merge the new columns which were created with the final columns array.
$columns = array_merge($columns, $new_columns);
}
}
return $columns;
}
?>
Usage:
<?php
// Return an array with all column names from A until and with BI.
createColumnsArray('BI');
?>

return range($matches[1], $matches[2]);
}
return FALSE;

// Test
$array = range_str(' 2 - 4 ');

input: "1-6" --> output: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
input: "1-6" --> output: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
input: "1 - -6" --> output: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
input: "0 - 0" --> output: 0

foreach(range()) whilst efficiant in other languages, such as python, it is not (compared to a for) in php*.
php is a C-inspired language and thus for is entirely in-keeping with the lanuage aethetic to use it
<?php
//efficiant
for($i = $start; $i < $end; $i+=$step)
{
//do something with array
}
//inefficiant
foreach(range($start, $end, $step) as $i)
{
//do something with array
}
?>
That the officiant documentation doesnt mention the for loop is strange.
Note however, that in PHP5 foreach is faster than for when iterating without incrementing a variable.
* My tests using microtime and 100 000 iterations consistently (~10 times) show that for is 4x faster than foreach(range()).

since its not stated explicitly above, thought id point out that you arent limited to using integers.
however, be careful when doing so, as you might not get the range you expect!
to illustrate:
<?php
$am = range(500,1600,10);
$fm = range(88.1,107.9,.2);
print_r($am);
print_r($fm);
?>
print_r($am) yields the expected result:
Array
(
[0] => 500
[1] => 510
[2] => 520
...
[109] => 1590
[110] => 1600
)
print_r($fm), however, falls a bit (1%) short:
Array
(
[0] => 88.1
[1] => 88.3
[2] => 88.5
...
[97] => 107.5
[98] => 107.7
)
so, if you want to use a non-integral step size params for numeric ranges, be sure to account for fp representation accuracy and error accumulation; a step size of something like pi or 1/10 could spell disaster for a large range. if in doubt, use integral steps and divide ... something like <?php range(88.1,108,.2) ?> might work to recover 107.9, but would not be scalable like, say <?php array_map(create_function('$x','return $x/10;'),range(881,1079,2)) ?>.
