README

Like Arrays. Only better!

What does this do?

Collections, at their core, are implementations of Iterator, ArrayAccess and Countable. But they're also a lot more than that.

Splice subsections of arrays simply by passing keys:

$collection = new Collection(array('Apple', 'Orange', 'Banana'));
$subset = $collection['0:1'];
// $subset is now: array('Apple', 'Orange')

$collection = new Collection(array('Apple', 'Orange', 'Banana'));
$subset = $collection['-2:2'];
// $subset contains ('Orange', 'Banana')

$collection = new Collection(array('Apple', 'Orange', 'Banana', 'Grapes'));
$subset = $collection[':LAST'];
// $subset is simply array('Grapes')

Quickly and easily Sort

$collection = new Collection(array(100, 50, 70, 10));
$collection->sort(Collection::SORT_ASC);
// $collection's order is now: 10, 50, 70, 100

$collection = new Collection(array(
    array(
        'name' => 'Sarah',
        'job' => 'Manager',
    ),
    array(
        'name' => 'Alex',
        'job' => 'Developer',
    ),
    array(
        'name' => 'Tracy',
        'job' => 'HR'
    ),
));
$collection->sortByMember('name', Collection::SORT_ASC);
