I have this list in a file:
paul,1
peter,1
mary,1
ian,1
paul,2
peter,2
mary,2
paul,3
mary,3
I have to end up with an array like this:
$people=array(
'paul'=>array(1,2,3),
'peter'=>array(1,2),
'mary'=>array(1,2,3),
'ian'=>array(1)
);
Here is where I am:
$a=file($f);//$a=array, $f=file
foreach($a as $b){
$l=explode(',',$b);//$l=list
$p=$l[0];//$p=person
$n=$l[1];//$n=number
}
print_r($lista);
But it is not working, of course. Any ideas?
Thanks.
You are nearly there, but you have to check your variable names. Eg $d
and $e
are not defined anywhere and you are passing the wrong argument to in_array
.
This should do it:
$file = file($f);
$list = array();
foreach($file as $line){
list($name, $value) = explode(',', $line);
if(!isset($list[$name])) {
$list[$name] = array();
}
$list[$name][] = $value;
}
print_r($list);
There is no requirement to check that an array already exists, or not, for the current name. PHP will, given the syntax below, happily create the array for a name if it does not already exist.
foreach ($a as $b) {
list($name, $number) = explode(',', $b);
$lista[$name][] = $number;
}
