end: to move the cursor to last element of an array

$my_array=array("First One", "Second One", "Third One", "Fourth One", "Fifth One");
end($my_array);
echo current($my_array); // Fifth One 

$my_array=array("First One", "Second One", "Third One", "Fourth One", "Fifth One");
end($my_array);
echo current($my_array); // Fifth One 
reset($my_array);
echo current($my_array); //First One 

$my_array=array("First One", "Second One", "Third One", "Fourth One", "Fifth One");
while (list ($key, $val) = each ($my_array)) { 
echo "$key -> $val <br>"; 
}
end($my_array);
echo current($my_array); // Fifth One 

$my_array=array("First One", "Second One", "Third One", "Fourth One", "Fifth One");

echo current($my_array); // Output : First One 
echo next($my_array); // Output : Second One 
echo next($my_array); // Output : Third One 
echo prev($my_array); // Output : Second One 
echo end($my_array); // Output : Fifth One 
echo reset($my_array); // Output : First One

Example: Traversing an Array in Reverse

$arr = ['apple', 'banana', 'cherry', 'date'];
while ($value = end($arr)) {
    echo $value . " ";
    array_pop($arr);
}
// Output: date cherry banana apple

Example: Using end() on an Empty Array

$arr = [];
echo end($arr);  // Output: false
