how to create array of a week days name in php

Question

I know this is stupid, but how would I do this? I would like to create an array of seven days through PHP What I mean is all the seven weekdays. I don't want to write them like his:

sunday monday tuesday ...etc

and days will be starting from sunday which means if today is the 29th of march (monday) then it automatically grabs the current date and create an array of weekdays starting from Sunday.

array always be in this way

 $weakarray=("sunday","monday",......,"saturday");

Answer 1

This might work..

$timestamp = strtotime('next Sunday');
$days = array();
for ($i = 0; $i < 7; $i++) {
    $days[] = strftime('%A', $timestamp);
    $timestamp = strtotime('+1 day', $timestamp);
}
