深入理解PHP之数组遍历顺序

经常会有人问我, PHP的数组, 如果用foreach来访问, 遍历的顺序是固定的么? 以什么顺序遍历呢?
比如:

<ol style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline; list-style-type: none;">
<li style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"><span class="sh_symbol" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;"><?php </span></span></li>
<li style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; font-weight: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-family: inherit; vertical-align: baseline;">

要完全了解清楚这个问题, 我想首先应该要大家了解PHP数组的内部实现结构………PHP的数组在PHP中, 数组是用一种HASH结构(HashTable)来实现的, PHP使用了一些机制, 使得可以在O(1)的时间复杂度下实现数组的增删, 并同时支持线性遍历和随机访问.之前的文章中也讨论过, PHP的HASH算法, 基于此, 我们做进一步的延伸.认识HashTable之前, 首先让我们看看HashTable的结构定义, 我加了注释方便大家理解:

我们注意到, 最后一个元素, 这个是flexible array技巧, 可以节省内存,和方便初始化的一种做法, 有兴趣的朋友可以google flexible array.There are a couple of things it could refer to. The only place I've seen that precise wording used much is C99 though.A flexible array member is the official C99 name for what used to (usually) be called the "struct hack". The basic idea is that you define a struct something like this:struct x { int a; // whatever members you want here. size_t size; int x[]; // no size, last member only }; This is used primarily (or exclusively) with dynamic allocation. When you want to allocate an object of this type, you
