ARRAY_FLIP(3)								 1							     ARRAY_FLIP(3)

array_flip - Exchanges all keys with their associated values in an array

SYNOPSIS

       array array_flip (array	$array)

DESCRIPTION

       array_flip(3) returns an array in flip order, i.e. keys from $array become values and values from $array become keys.

	Note  that the values of $array need to be valid keys, i.e. they need to be either integer or string. A warning will be emitted if a value
       has the wrong type, and the key/value pair in question will not be included in the result.

	If a value has several occurrences, the latest key will be used as its value, and all others will be lost.

PARAMETERS

	      o $array
		- An array of key/value pairs to be flipped.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns the flipped array on success and NULL on failure.
