Create a CSV file with PHP

Question

I need to create a CSV file from a PHP array, I'm aware of the fputcsv() function. I've a recollection that a better function exists for this kind of stuff but I can't find it nor remember it's name.

Does anyone know of such function or am I imagining?

I might be making some confusion with the fgetcsv() function and the str_getcsv() equivalent.

Answer 1

fputcsv is to write an array into a file with CSV format. fgetcsv is to read data from a file with CSV format and convert it into an array. And str_getcsv is to convert a string in CSV format into an array.

So fputcsv and fgetcsv are their respective inverses. And fgetcsv could be a function that uses str_getcsv.
