I have the following array.
$a = array("Algebra", "Arithmetic");
$b = array("08/01/2020", "08/02/2019");
$c = array("08/01/2020", "08/02/2019");
print_r($a);
print_r($b);
print_r($b);
and the output is
Array(
[0] => Algebra
[1] => Arithmetic
)
Array(
[0] => 08/01/2020
[1] => 08/01/2019
)
Array(
[0] => 08/02/2020
[1] => 08/02/2019
)
And I want Array in the following structure.
Array(
[0] => Algebra,08/01/2020,08/02/2020
[1] => Arithmetic,08/01/2019,08/02/2019
)
I have tried $results = array_merge_recursive($a, $b, $c);
but its not giving desire output.
Thanks for help in advance.
You don't get anything built-in for this purpose. You need to build a custom function for this. You can try this-
<?php
$a = array("Algebra", "Arithmetic");
$b = array("08/01/2020", "08/01/2019");
$c = array("08/02/2020", "08/02/2019");
function mergeAssoc()
{
// You can get variable number of arguments|array by this.
$args = func_get_args();
$master = array();
foreach ($args as $arg)
{
foreach ($arg as $i => $v)
{
$master[$i][] = $v;
}
}
return $master;
}
$res = mergeAssoc($a, $b, $c);
print_r($res);
Note: It will return a multidimensional array. Not an array of comma-separated values.
Output:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[0] => Algebra
[1] => 08/01/2020
[2] => 08/02/2020
)
[1] => Array
(
[0] => Arithmetic
[1] => 08/01/2019
[2] => 08/02/2019
)
)
and if we use foreach
then our desire output will be there with array separated by comma.
foreach ($res as $key => $value) {
$result[] = implode(',', $value);
}
and output of print_r($result);
is
Array
(
[0] => Algebra,08/01/2020,08/02/2020
[1] => Arithmetic,08/01/2019,08/02/2019
)
Firstly, when you find yourself using sequentially-named variables it almost always means that they should actually be an array:
$a = array("Algebra", "Arithmetic");
$b = array("08/01/2020", "08/02/2019");
$c = array("08/01/2020", "08/02/2019");
$better_array = [$a, $b, $c];
var_dump($better_array);
Output:
array(3) {
[0]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(7) "Algebra"
[1]=>
string(10) "Arithmetic"
}
[1]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(10) "08/01/2020"
[1]=>
string(10) "08/02/2019"
}
[2]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(10) "08/01/2020"
[1]=>
string(10) "08/02/2019"
}
}
Once they're in an proper array you can use array_column()
$out = [];
for($i=0, $c=count($better_array[0]); $i < $c; ++$i) {
$out[] = array_column($better_array, $i);
}
var_dump($out);
Output:
array(2) {
[0]=>
array(3) {
[0]=>
string(7) "Algebra"
[1]=>
string(10) "08/01/2020"
[2]=>
string(10) "08/01/2020"
}
[1]=>
array(3) {
[0]=>
string(10) "Arithmetic"
[1]=>
string(10) "08/02/2019"
[2]=>
string(10) "08/02/2019"
}
}
And if that comma-delimited string is what you actually want, then use implode()
:
$out = [];
for($i=0, $c=count($better_array[0]); $i < $c; ++$i) {
$out[] = implode(',', array_column($better_array, $i));
}
var_dump($out);
Output:
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(29) "Algebra,08/01/2020,08/01/2020"
[1]=>
string(32) "Arithmetic,08/02/2019,08/02/2019"
}
Lastly, you should avoid print_r()
as it tends to produce misleading output. Eg: https://3v4l.org/ThSLb
A simple foreach loop will suffice
$a = array("Algebra", "Arithmetic");
$b = array("08/01/2020", "08/02/2019");
$c = array("08/01/2020", "08/02/2019");
foreach( $a as $i=>$v ) {
$new[] = sprintf( '%s,%s,%s', $v, $b[$i], $c[$i] );
}
