== Why is this an issue?

``++sizeof()++`` is an alias of ``++count()++`` so the two offer the same results, but ``++sizeof()++`` has a different meaning in other languages and may confuse developers who are new to PHP.


=== Noncompliant code example

[source,php]
----
$fruit=("apple","pear","raspberry","gooseberry","red currant");
echo sizeof($fruit);  // Noncompliant
----


=== Compliant solution

[source,php]
----
$fruit=("apple","pear","raspberry","gooseberry","red currant");
echo count($fruit);
----
