pad_size is positive then the array is
padded on the right, if it's negative then on the left. If the
absolute value of pad_size is less than or
equal to the length of the input then no
padding takes place.
It is possible to add most 1048576 elements at a time.

$input = array(12, 10, 9);

$result = array_pad($input, 5, 0);
// result is array(12, 10, 9, 0, 0)

$result = array_pad($input, -7, -1);
// result is array(-1, -1, -1, -1, 12, 10, 9)

$result = array_pad($input, 2, "noop");
// not padded
