This is the first one that comes to my mind:

And this is why they're inconsistent to begin with. When I look
at strpos() I think: strchr(char *, int) So the parameter
ordering does make sense there (to me).
Yes, coming from a C background you would think like that.
But when you think about it with some logic (not women's logic :):
"I'm looking for a character inside a string."
Or looking for a *needle* in a *haystack*.

Thus: strpos(needle, haystack) is the correct way (tm) =)
I agree, though I don't really care so long as its the same in all
the str* and array* functions
