PHP Add number to variable from array

Question

I have this code:

if( ( $cacheout - $data['import_time'] ) > 129600 ){
                unset( $fresh_data[$key] );
}

$data gets the time (import time) from an array which is a digital value, for example: 1576784091.

I wanted to add 43200 to this $data['import_time'] variable.

How to save it?

Do you want to add $data['import_time'] + 43200 or swith import_time to 43200 ? — user1805543

This is incredibly basic programming, are we missing something? You do it the same way you add to any other variable, there's nothing special about arrays. — Barmar

$data['import_time'] += 43200;

Wouldn't it be simpler to use +=?

Why not both versions?

Try the below code:

$data['import_time'] = $data['import_time'] + 43200;
