Memcache::add — Add an item to the server

var with key only if such
key doesn't exist at the server yet.
Also you can use memcache_add() function.
Parameters
-
key -
The key that will be associated with the item.
-

The variable to store. Strings and integers are stored as is, other types are stored serialized.
