array_slice returns the array, so you could just overwrite the old one with the new one

<?php
 $crazy = array(
\"apple\",
\"banana\",
\"coconut\",
\"duran\",
\"elephant\",
\"fire\",
\"gauze\"
); 

$crazy = array_slice($crazy, 2);
?>

<?php
$crazy = array( 
\"apple\", 
\"banana\", 
\"coconut\", 
\"duran\", 
\"elephant\", 
\"fire\", 
\"gauze\" 
);

for ($i = 0; $i < count($crazy); $i++) 
{
    if ($i > 4) unset($crazy[$i]);
}

# eh? that takes care of the first 5 you want
?>

not sure if this works haha

yeah but he'd have to go in and do unset() for all the keys he doesn't want. it would be better if we knew what he was actually going to do with the array.

_slice() returns a range, but doesn't delete the others. unset($arr[$key]) should remove the element, I think.

maybe this would be more simpler to answer if we actually knew what you were doing. i don't see how the slice function didn't work. :/

Not really, it seems to me that the array content still stays, I want it to be gone completely
