Why is the following code "crashing" in PHP?
$normal_array = array();
$array_of_arrayrefs = array( &$normal_array );
end( $array_of_arrayrefs )["one"] = 1; // choking on this one
The expected result is that the final code line appends $normal_array
with key one
having value 1
but there is no output what so ever, not even prints preceeding this code. In the real context of this scenario I use end() function to always append to the last array reference.
