- Synopsis:
- $getmatches(<array> <pattern>)
- $getrmatches(<array> <string>)
-
- Technical:
- This functions operate in a manner similar to $matchitem() and
- $rmatchitem(), except that they return a list of all items that match
- the input pattern or string, not just the best match. Item numbers
- are returned, not the actual array contents.
-
- Practical:
- The $getmatches() function is used to retrieve all items in the given
- array that match the given pattern. Similarly, $getrmatches() is used
- to retrieve all items that match the given string.
-
- Returns:
- list of item numbers corresponding to matches
