PHP array_udiff_assoc() Function

array_udiff_assoc($array1, $array2, $array3..........array nth, arr_udiffassocFun)

1. array1 : It is the initial array and compares to another array. It is Mandatory.
2. array2 : The array Compared with the first array key. It is Mandatory .
3. array3 : The second array Compared with the first array key. It is Optional.
4. arr_udiffassocFun: It's required user-defined function and A string that define user-defined callback function and it return an integer <, =, or > than 0 if the first argument is <, =, or > than the second argument. 
    

Input :
 $arr1 = array(
    "a" => "Geeks",
    "b" => "for",
    "d" => "geeks"
);
$arr2 = array(
    "a" => "Geeks",
    "y" => "is",
    "d" => "geeks"
);
Output:
Array
(
    [b] => for
)
Explanation: arr1 contains only one 
values(for) which is not present in 
arr2.

Example 2 :

Input:
$arr1 = array(
    "a" => "C",
    "b" => "C++",
    "d" => "Java",
    "x" => "XML",
    "y" => "C#"
);
$arr2 = array(
    "a" => "C",
    "b" => "C++",
    "d" => "PHP",
    "x" => "Advanced PHP",
    "n" => "XML"    
);
Output:
Array
(
    [d] => Java
    [x] => XML
    [y] => C#
)

Explanation: arr1  return three values
(article) which are not present in arr2.
But XML is present both arr1 and arr2 
but both have different key.

Let's take a simple example to understand about array_udiff_assoc() Function. Program 1: Take two array (array1 and array2) and using user-defined key comparison function (arr_udiffassocFun).

<?php
// PHP code for array_udiff_assoc function.

// This function is used to decide which elements
// to pick array_udiff_assoc
function arr_udiffassocFun($x, $y)
{       
    return ($x === $y)? 0 : 1;
}

// array list for comparison.
$arr1 = array(
    "a" => "Raj",
    "b" => "Ram",
    "d" => "Denish",
    "r" => "David"
);
$arr2 = array(
    "a" => "Raj",
    "y" => "Ram",
    "d" => "Denish",
    "x" => "Ritche"
);

// Driver code
$result = array_udiff_assoc($arr1,
             $arr2, "arr_udiffassocFun");
print_r($result);
?>

Array
(
    [b] => Ram
    [r] => David
)

Note: [b] => Ram is printed because key is different. In array_diff_assoc() and array_udiff_assoc(), keys and values both are compared. array_diff() compares only values. Program: 2 Takes four array (array1, array2, array3 and array4 ) and using user-defined key comparison function array_udiff_assoc().

<?php
// PHP code for array_udiff_assoc function
// This function is used to decide which elements
// to pick array_udiff_assoc
function arr_udiffassocFun($x, $y)
{       
    return ($x === $y)? 0 : 1;
}

// array list for comparison.
$arr1 = array(
    "a" => "Larry",
    "b" => "Page",
    "d" => "Denish",
    "r" => "Ritche"
);
$arr2 = array(
    "a" => "Larry",
    "y" => "Page",
    "d" => "Denish",
    "r" => "Ritche"
);
$arr3 = array(
    "a" => "larry",
    "y" => "Bill Gate",
    "d" => "Denish",
    "r" => "Willion"
);
$arr4 = array(
    "a" => "Raj",
    "y" => "Bill Gate",
    "d" => "Denish",
    "r" => "Woks"
);
$result = array_udiff_assoc($arr1,
   $arr2, $arr3, $arr4, "arr_udiffassocFun");
// print result.
print_r($result);
?>

Array
(
    [b] => Page
)
