ArrayVis

What ⚡

Output a compact, text-based view of any array where all keys are shown but no values and rows are limited to just one with a summary of total number of rows.

Why 🤷‍♂️

If you work with arrays or apis you need a method to quickly understand just he structure of the array and keys. Using print_r or var_dump can be confusing as it shows you everything.

How 📋

Just pass any array to the function and voila!

ArrayVis($thearray)

Before and After

It just returns the keys and not values.
