Add to an array in PHP

array_push() vs. $array[] = … Which is fastest?

Is it better to use [] or array_push() to add to an array in PHP?

I always use array_push(), but only because it seems proper.

$array = array();

array_push($array, array('1', '2', '3'));

// or

$array[] = array('1', '2', '3');
