Careful, that will eat your array as well. When the while loop finishes you won't have any pieces of pie left!
that was the idea: you can't have your pie at eat it right? ;-)
seriously thought, John Taylor-Johnston was asking for help on while loops and I thought I'd give him some brainfood (i.e. a little optimalization thrown in). besides which how many times have we in our PHP
careers not created arrays just to loop over them once, outputting each item?
IE: $applePie = array(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8);
while ($pieceOfPie = array_shift($applePie)) { echo $pieceOfPie; // want some pie? }
// Both of these are now true: $applePie == array(); $applePie != array(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8);
