The Ds\Map::merge() function is an inbuilt function in PHP which is used to return the result of adding all given associations.

Syntax:

Ds\Map public Ds\Map::merge( $values )

Parameter: This function accepts single parameter $values which holds the traversable object or an array.

Return value: This function returns the associating all keys of a given traversable object or array with their corresponding values, combined with the current instance.

Below programs illustrate the Ds\Map::merge() function in PHP:

Program 1:

<?php  
   
// Create new map 
$map = new \Ds\Map(["a" => 12, 
    "b" => 15, "c" => 18, "d" => 20]);  
   
// Merge the map element and display it  
print_r($map->merge(["a" => 1, "c" => 2, "f" => 3]));  
   
// Display the set element  
print_r($map)  
  
?>  

Output:

Ds\Map Object
(
    [0] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => a
            [value] => 1
        )

    [1] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => b
            [value] => 15
        )

    [2] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => c
            [value] => 2
        )

    [3] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => d
            [value] => 20
        )

    [4] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => f
            [value] => 3
        )

)
Ds\Map Object
(
    [0] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => a
            [value] => 12
        )

    [1] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => b
            [value] => 15
        )

    [2] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => c
            [value] => 18
        )

    [3] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => d
            [value] => 20
        )

)

Program 2:

<?php  
   
// Create new map 
$map = new \Ds\Map(["1" => "Geeks", 
        "2" => "for", "3" => "Geeks"]);  
   
// Merge the map element and display it  
print_r($map->merge(["a" => "Computer", 
        "b" => "Science", "c" => "Portal"]));  
  
?>  

Output:

Ds\Map Object
(
    [0] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => 1
            [value] => Geeks
        )

    [1] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => 2
            [value] => for
        )

    [2] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => 3
            [value] => Geeks
        )

    [3] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => a
            [value] => Computer
        )

    [4] => Ds\Pair Object
        (
            [key] => b
            [value] => Science
        )

    [5] => Ds\Pair Object
