PHP - Ds Set get() Function

---

---

ThePHP Ds\Set::get()function retrieves the value at a specified index within the current set. The index begins at position 0, so index 0 represents the first element, index 1 represents the second element, and so on.

If the specified index value is negative or invalid (not in range), this function will throw an "OutOfRangeException" exception.

Syntax

Following is the syntax of the PHP Ds\Set::get() function −

public mixed Ds\Set::get( int $index )

Parameters

This function accepts a single parameter named 'index', which is described below −

• index − An integer value that specifies the index to access.

Return value

This function returns the value at the requested index.

Example 1

The following is the basic example of the PHP Ds\Set::get() function.

<?php
   $set = new \Ds\Set([132, 312, 213, 123, 231]);
   echo "The set elements are: \n";
   print_r($set);
   $index = 3;
   echo "The index value is: ".$index;
   echo "\nThe elements ".$set->get($index). " is found at index position ".$index;
?>

Output

After executing the above program, it will generate the following output −

The set elements are:
Ds\Set Object
(
    [0] => 132
    [1] => 312
    [2] => 213
    [3] => 123
    [4] => 231
)
The index value is: 3
The elements 123 is found at index position 3

Example 2

The following is another example of the PHP Ds\Set::get() function. We use this function to retrieve an element from this set (["Welcome", "to", "Tutorials", "point"]) at the specified index 0.

<?php
    $set = new \Ds\Set(["Welcome", "to", "Tutorials", "point"]);
    echo "The set elements are: \n";
    print_r($set);
	$index = 0;
	echo "The index value is: ".$index;
    echo "\nThe elements '".$set->get($index)."' is found at index position ".$index;
?>

Output

The above program returns the following output −

The set elements are:
Ds\Set Object
(
    [0] => Welcome
    [1] => to
    [2] => Tutorials
    [3] => point
)
The index value is: 0
The elements 'Welcome' is found at index position 0

Example 3

If the index parameter value is negative or greater than the set size, the get() function will throw an "OutOfRangeException" exception.

<?php
   $set = new \Ds\Set([10, 20, 30, 40, 50]);
   echo "The set elements are: \n";
   print_r($set);
   $index = 7;
   echo "The index value is: ".$index;
   echo "The element obtained: ";
   var_dump($set->get(7));
?>

Output

Once the program above is executed, it will throw the following exception:

The set elements are:
Ds\Set Object
(
    [0] => 10
    [1] => 20
    [2] => 30
    [3] => 40
    [4] => 50
)
The index value is: 7The element obtained: PHP Fatal error:
