Each structure is represented by an immutable object that can be counted and serialized to JSON. All of the structures can be used as [iterators](http://php.net/manual/en/class.iterator.php) and [arrays](http://php.net/manual/en/class.arrayaccess.php), but cannot be modified using array functions. For more information, see [the documentation](http://equipframework.readthedocs.org/en/latest/structure). This package is compliant with [PSR-1](https://github.com/php-fig/fig-standards/blob/master/accepted/PSR-1-basic-coding-standard.md), [PSR-2](https://github.com/php-fig/fig-standards/blob/master/accepted/PSR-2-coding-style-guide.md), and [PSR-4](https://github.com/php-fig/fig-standards/blob/master/accepted/PSR-4-autoloader.md). If you notice compliance oversights, please send a patch via pull request. Structures ---------- [](#structures) **`Dictionary`** is an implementation of a [associative array](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array) that stores values identified by a key. Only associative arrays can be used to initialize the structure. Any value can be defined by a string key. **`SortedDictionary`** is an implementation of a [associative array](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Associative_array)that also sorts the array. When the dictionary is modified it will be sorted. By default the [`asort`](http://php.net/asort) function is used. **`OrderedList`** is an implementation of a [list](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_(abstract_data_type)) that stores ordered values. Only an indexed array can be used to initialize the structure. Any value can be added. When the list is modified it will be sorted. By default the [`sort`](http://php.net/sort) function will be used. **`UnorderedList`** is an implementation of a [list](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_(abstract_data_type)) that stores unordered values. The same value may appear more than once. Only an indexed array can be used to initialize the structure. Any value can be added. **`Set`** is an implementation of a [set](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Set_(abstract_data_type)) that stores a unique values. The same value will *not* appear more than once. Only an indexed array can be used to initialize the structure. Adding an existing value to the set will have no effect. A set also also be added to before or after an existing element. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) The following versions of PHP are supported. - PHP 5.5 - PHP 5.6 - PHP 7.0 - HHVM Install ------- [](#install) Via Composer ``` $ composer require equip/structure ``` License ------- [](#license) The MIT License (MIT).
