For Example    data   array  firstKey    gt   firstValue    secondKey    gt   secondValue      For changing key value    data  firstKey      changedValue      this will change value of firstKey because firstkey is available in array      output       Array    firstKey     changedValue  secondKey     secondValue     For adding new key value pair    data  newKey      newValue      this will add new key and value because newKey is not available in array      output       Array    firstKey     firstValue  secondKey     secondValue  newKey       newValue

You don t need to use array push   function  you can assign new value with new key directly to the array like     array   array  color1   gt  red    color2   gt  blue     array  color3    green   print r  array     Output      Array        color1    gt  red       color2    gt  blue       color3    gt  green
