" 1 5 arrayDump"];
}
ArrayIndex()
Find the 1 based index of the second source operand in the array referenced by the first source operand if it is present in the array else 0 into the target location. The business of returning -1 would have led to the confusion of "try catch" and we certainly do not want that.
