'oranges'));
Quite the opposite actually :)
Me too - I go beyond Edin on this one, as I find the array() version actually
quite UNreadable and I have difficulty picking out what the individual arrays
are; conversely, the [] version I take in at a glance.
That is why you have coding standards. Our doucment states that this
should be written as:
$a = array(
1 => array('pears', 'apples'),
2 => array('juice', 'oranges')
);
I believe in either syntax, proper formatting of complex data can solve
the readablity problems.
