PHP Exercises: Check a given array of integers and return true if there are two values 15, 15 next to each other

PHP Basic Algorithm: Exercise-131 with Solution

Write a PHP program to check a given array (length will be atleast 2) of integers and return true if there are two values 15, 15 next to each other.

Sample Solution:

PHP Code :

<?php
// Define a function named 'test' that takes an array of numbers as a parameter
function test($numbers)
{ 
    // Iterate through the elements of the input array using a for loop
    for ($i = 0; $i < sizeof($numbers) - 1; $i++)
    {
        // Check if the next element is equal to the current element, and both are equal to 15
        if ($numbers[$i + 1] == $numbers[$i] && $numbers[$i] == 15) 
        {
            // If true, return true, indicating the presence of consecutive 15s
            return true;
        }
    }

    // If the loop completes without finding consecutive 15s, return false
    return false;
}   

// Use the 'var_dump' function to print the result of the 'test' function for different arrays
var_dump(test([5, 5, 1, 15, 15]));
var_dump(test([15, 2, 3, 4, 15]));
var_dump(test([3, 3, 15, 15, 5, 5]));
var_dump(test([1, 5, 15, 7, 8, 15]));
?>

Sample Output:

bool(true)
bool(false)
bool(true)
bool(false)

Previous: Write a PHP program to check if the value of each element is equal or greater than the value of previous element of a given array of integers.
Next: Write a PHP program to find the larger average value between the first and the second half of a given array of integers and minimum length is atleast 2. Assume that the second half begins at index (array length)/2.
