Okay, but those effectively don't exist in PHP ;)

I guess constant array would mean that all the variables inside the array
dimensions should not change.
Just saying that, is a nonsense.
If a constant could be an array, then that array could not contain
variables, if not it wouldn't be constant any more as a change to one
variable inside it would
Yes, I am wondering too. For mechanism you can refer to the source code,
and can someone explain why we cannot have constant arrays ?

This must be some strange definition of "constant" I do not understand, then (:

Hi Barbu:

Do keep in mind that you can serialize() the array before storing it in
a constant. Then use unserialize(CONSTANT) when you need the data.

Agreed, i was more thinking of #define (not const), whe

I disagree. In C you can have:
const data foo[] = { { "Data1", 2 }, { "Data2", 78 } };
It's not unusual in php to have a complex structure that won't change
in a variable. It shou
Barbu,
This is how constants work in all viable languages such as C/++.
They are not 'variables of data', they contain scalar values so that
you can have a maintainable source for your value to refer to later.

Hello!
I wonder why I cannot assign arrays to constants.
According to the PHP manual:
"only scalar and null values are allowed. Scalar values are integer, float,
string or boolean values."
What is the mechanism behind this?
What's the explanation?
