    Are 10,000 co0des really maintained in a single PHP array? If so, you could use in_array() to search for a match. I’m a bit skeptical that you have a 10,000 element array. If the code data is maintained in another format, different techniques can be used to search. The correct technique depends on how the codes are actually stored.
