Warning: array_push() expects parameter 1 to be array, integer given in

Hi I was writing a program and my program was as below

$statename =array(); 
while(! feof($file)) 
{
    $fileData = fgetcsv($file); 
    //print_r($fileData); print_r($fileData[9]); 
    $statename = array_push($statename ,$fileData[9]); 
    //array_push($a,"blue","yellow"); 
 }



When i try to execute the above code i am getting the following error

Warning: array_push() expects parameter 1 to be array, integer given in

I went into my code and tried to analyse and debug i had to change one thing here and found a solution 


while(! feof($file)) 
{
    $fileData = fgetcsv($file); 
    //print_r($fileData); print_r($fileData[9]); 
    array_push($statename ,$fileData[9]); 
    //array_push($a,"blue","yellow"); 
 }

i modified the following line 


    $statename = array_push($statename ,$fileData[9]); 

to
     

    array_push($statename ,$fileData[9]); 

This is the way i was able to fix my code
