Associative array in php

1. Create and Print an Associative Array


Write a PHP script to create an associative array of 5 students with their marks and
print each key-value pair.
<?php
$students = [ "John" => 85, "Emma" => 90, "Mike" => 78, "Sophia" => 92, "David" => 88];
foreach ($students as $name => $marks) {
echo "Student: $name, Marks: $marks <br>";
}
?>

2. Access and Modify Values in an Associative Array


Write a PHP script to modify the marks of a specific student in an associative array
and print the updated array.
<?php
$students = ["John" => 85, "Emma" => 90, "Mike" => 78];
$students["Emma"] = 95; // Modify Emma's marks
print_r($students);
?>

3. Loop Through an Associative Array


Write a PHP program to iterate through an associative array using foreach and print
all key-value pairs.
<?php
$students = ["John" => 85, "Emma" => 90, "Mike" => 78];
foreach ($students as $name => $marks) {
echo "$name scored $marks marks.<br>";
}
?>
4. Count Elements in an Associative Array
Write a PHP program to count the number of elements in an associative array using
count().
<?php
$students = ["John" => 85, "Emma" => 90, "Mike" => 78];

echo "Total students: " . count($students);


?>
5. Check if a Key Exists in an Associative Array
Write a PHP script to check if a specific key exists in an associative array using
array_key_exists().
<?php
$students = ["John" => 85, "Emma" => 90, "Mike" => 78];

if (array_key_exists("Emma", $students)) {
echo "Emma is in the students list.";
} else {
echo "Emma is not found.";
}
?>

6. Remove a Key from an Associative Array


Write a PHP script to remove a specific key from an associative array and re-index
it.
<?php
$students = ["John" => 85, "Emma" => 90, "Mike" => 78];
unset($students["Mike"]); // Remove Mike
print_r($students);?>
7. Sorting an Associative Array
Write a PHP script to sort an associative array:

By keys in ascending order.


<?php
$students = ["John" => 85, "Emma" => 90, "Mike" => 78];
ksort($students); // Sort by keys
print_r($students);
?>
By values in ascending order.
<?php
$students = ["John" => 85, "Emma" => 90, "Mike" => 78];
asort($students); // Sort by values
print_r($students);
?>
8. Merge Two Associative Arrays
Write a PHP script to merge two associative arrays into one.
<?php
$students1 = ["John" => 85, "Emma" => 90];
$students2 = ["Mike" => 78, "Sophia" => 92];
$merged = array_merge($students1, $students2);
print_r($merged);
?>

9. Search for a Value in an Associative Array


Write a PHP script to check if a specific value exists in an associative array.
<?php
$students = ["John" => 85, "Emma" => 90, "Mike" => 78];
if (in_array(90, $students)) {
echo "A student has 90 marks.";
} else {
echo "No student has 90 marks.";
}
?>

10. Reverse an Associative Array


Write a PHP script to reverse the order of elements in an associative array.
<?php
$students = ["John" => 85, "Emma" => 90, "Mike" => 78];
$reversed = array_reverse($students, true);
print_r($reversed);
?>
