Is it faster to do the following: if ($var != 'test1' && $var != 'test2' && $var != 'test3' && $var != 'test4') { ... } Or: if (!in_array($var, array('test1', 'test2', 'test3', 'test4') { ... } Is there a number of values at which point it's faster to do one or the other? (In this case, the array used in the second option doesn'...

How can I solve it? Here part of the code: $temp = new tempClass($x, $y); if (!in_array($temp, $temp_array)) { $temp2_array[] = $temp;...
ANSWERED: THE FUNCTION WORKS AS I WANTED IT TO. I HAD A TYPO IN MY TEST PHP THAT MADE IT RETURN TRUE REGARDLESS. I am using in_array, and I'm trying to use it in a way where it will only return true if it's an exact match of one of the objects in the array, not just if it's "in" the array. e.g. 1. $sample_array = array('123', '234', '...
