The <function>key</function> function simply returns the
|
|
key of the array element that's currently being pointed to by the
|
|
internal pointer. It does not move the pointer in any way. If the
|
|
internal pointer points beyond the end of the elements list or the array is
|
|
empty, <function>key</function> returns &null;.
