/**

* The new key > the greatest key
*
* Array keys are case-sensitive, but type insensitive
*/
$A = array(2 => 5);
$B = array('4' => 5, 'a' => 'b');
$C = ['A' => 1, 'a' => 2, '1' => 3, 1=> 4, '01' => 5];
$A[] = 'a'; // key = 3
$B[] = 44; // key = 5
var_dump( $A[3] == 'a' ); // true
var_dump( $B[5] == 44 ); // true
var_dump( $C['A'] == $C['a'] ); // false
var_dump( $C['1'] == $C[1] ); // true
print_r($C); // A=>1, a=>2, 1=>4, 01=>5

/**
