An optional parameter that controls
how the returned <type>array</type> is indexed.
<parameter>result_type</parameter> is a constant and can take the
following values: <constant>PGSQL_ASSOC</constant>,
<constant>PGSQL_NUM</constant> and <constant>PGSQL_BOTH</constant>.
Using <constant>PGSQL_NUM</constant>, <function>pg_get_notify</function>
will return an array with numerical indices, using
<constant>PGSQL_ASSOC</constant> it will return only associative indices
while <constant>PGSQL_BOTH</constant>, the default, will return both
numerical and associative indices.
