PHP - Map Functions

The Map is a sequential collection of key-value pairs, almost identical to an array used in a similar context. The keys can be of any type but must be unique, and the values are replaced if added to the map by using the same key.

Strengths

Keys and values can be any type, including objects.
Supports array syntax (square brackets).
Insertion order is preserved.
Performance and memory efficiency is very similar to an array.
Automatically frees allocated memory when its size drops low enough.

Weaknesses

Can’t be converted to an array when objects are used as keys.
