A bonus tip: do not merge arrays if you're not absolutely positively sure they are truly associative. Consider:
Coming from PHP background first I didn't understand why I would need separate types for lists and dicts in Python. Now I think they are a godsend.
If I had the time I'd write 999 Things You Should Check in Your PHP Right Now. If this is the only language in your belt, please for your software's sake learn something else, widen your perspective.
array_merge(array(CONST_1 => 'val1'), array(CONST_2 => 'val2'));
array(CONST_1 => 'val1', CONST_2 => 'val2')
define('CONST_1', '1024');
define('CONST_2', '65536');
array(0 => 'val1', 1 => 'val2');

Just so you know, my comment is not upvoted, and yours is downvoted because of the tone.
"It's just the way array_merge works" is true, so true even that it applies to the whole language. Why would merging an array yield a different result than adding them together, anyway?

Title makes it sound like security issues. But really it's just a list of 'improvements' you can make. Fun.
Not to mention how dense these suggestions are. Caching speeds things up? Really? Thank you for enlightening all of us.
