PHP in_array() Function

in_array() is used to search for an array element through the array. It is the standard of  PHP4.

in_array(element,array,type);

element, is the element to be searched.(Required Parameter)
array, is the given array in which we will make our search.(Required Parameter)
type, If this parameter is set, the in_array() function searches for the search-string and specific type in the array (Optional parameter).
