Nudging an array from it's zero item

Question

I have an array encoded in UTF-8, sorta like this:

Array
(
[0] => אלף
[1] => בית
[2] => גימל
[3] => דלת
[4] => הא
[5] => ואו
)

Is it possible to leave the 0 array item empty and start the array at 1? I sorta wanna nudge everything over, and the array would then look like this:

Array
(
[0] => 
[1] => אלף
[2] => בית
[3] => גימל
[4] => דלת
[5] => הא
[6] => ואו
)

Thanks!

Answer 1

Use array_unshift, example:

<?php

$arr=array(1,2,3);
array_unshift($arr,null);

print_r($arr);

?>

Prints Array ( [0] => [1] => 1 [2] => 2 [3] => 3 )
