Last Updated : 21 Aug, 2019

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

<?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

<?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
