How to divide array into small arrays?

Question

I have an array with 3200 values. A user chooses a number (let's say 50). I want to divide the big array into smaller arrays, each of them containing 50 values (the last one containing the remainder).

How would you do that?

Don't forget that php.net is a great resource for determining what built-in functions PHP has. ca.php.net/manual/en/ref.array.php — Incognito

array_chunk

e.g.

 $arrays = array_chunk($my_big_array, 50);

Depending on how you want to do it array_chunk() might be a good place to start.
