Example:  <?php  $pets =  array ( "dog" , "cat" , "rabbit" ); echo $pets [ 0 ] . "," . $pets [ 1 ] . "," . $pets [ 2 ]; ?>   Output:  dog,cat,rabbit   An array  is a special variable, which can hold more than one value at a time.  If you have a list of student names, storing the names in single variables could like this,  $name1 = "Peter"  $name2 = "Mickle"  $name2 = "Bravo"  However, what if you want to loop through the names and find a specific one?

There are three different kind of arrays.      Numeric array  – Arrays with a numeric index    Associative array  – Arrays with named keys   ...
