PHP Arrays

PHP Arrays

 An array stores multiple values in one single


variable.

 An array is a special variable, which can hold more


than one value at a time.

 An array can hold many values under a single


name, and you can access the values by referring to
an index number.
Create an Array in PHP

In PHP, the array() function is used to create an array:


array();

 In PHP, there are three types of arrays:


• Indexed arrays - Arrays with a numeric
index
• Associative arrays - Arrays with named
keys
• Multidimensional arrays - Arrays
containing one or more arrays
PHP Indexed Arrays

 Thereare two ways to create indexed


arrays:
 Theindex can be assigned automatically
(index always starts at 0), like this:
 $cars = array("Volvo", "BMW", "Toyota");
or the index can be assigned manually:
 $cars[0]= "Volvo";
$cars[1] = "BMW";
$cars[2] = "Toyota";
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<?php
$myArr = array("GLA", "University", "Mathura");
echo "I am doing BCA from " . $myArr[0] . " " . $ myArr[1] . "," . $ myArr[2] . ".";
?>

</body>
</html>

Output:
I am doing BCA from GLA University,Mathura.
<!DOCTYPE html> To loop through and print all
the values of an indexed
<html> array, you could use
<body> a for loop, like this:

<?php
$myArr = array("GLA", "University", Output:
"Mathura");
$arrlength = count($myArr); GLA
for($x = 0; $x < $arrlength; $x++) {
University
echo $myArr[$x]; Mathura
echo "<br>";
}
?>

</body>
</html>
PHP Associative Arrays
 Associative arrays are arrays that use named keys that
we assign to them.
 There are two ways to create an associative array:
 $age = array(“Rohit"=>“23", “Kapil"=>“19",
“Neeraj"=>“20");
 or:
 $age[‘Rohit'] = “23";
$age[‘Kapil'] = “19";
$age[‘Neeraj'] = “20";
 The named keys can then be used in a script.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<?php
$age = array("Rohit"=>"23", "Kapil"=>"19", "Neeraj"=>"20");
echo "Kapil is " . $age['Kapil'] . " years old.";
?>

</body>
</html>

Output:

Kapil is 19 years old.


<!DOCTYPE html>
<html> Output:
<body>
Key=Rohit, Value=23
<?php
Key=Kapil, Value=19
$age = array("Rohit"=>"23",
"Kapil"=>"19", "Neeraj"=>"20"); Key=Neeraj, Value=20

foreach($age as $x => $x_value) {


echo "Key=" . $x . ", Value=" . $x_value;
echo "<br>";
}
?>

</body>
</html>
PHP Multidimensional Arrays
 A multidimensional array is an array containing one
or more arrays.

 PHP supports multidimensional arrays that are two,


three, four, five, or more levels deep.

 However, arrays more than three levels deep are


hard to manage for most people.
Name Class Roll No
Romya BCA 1
Madhur BCA 2
Vishal BCA 3
Kirat BCA 4

We can store the data from the table above in a two-


dimensional array, like this:
$std = array (
array(“Romya",BCA,1),
array(“Madhur",BCA,2),
array(“Vishal",BCA,3),
array(“Kirat",BCA,4)
);
Now the two-dimensional $std array contains four arrays, and
it has two indices: row and column.
To get access to the elements of the $cars array we must point to the two
indices (row and column):
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<?php
$std = array ( Romya: is in : BCA. Her Roll No. is: 18.
array("Romya","BCA",18), Madhur: is in: BCA. His Roll No. is: 13.
array("Madhur","BCA",13), Vishal: is in: BCA. His Roll No. is: 2.
array("Vishal","BCA",2), Kirat: is in: BCA. Her Roll No. is: 15.
array("Kirat","BCA",15)
);

echo $std[0][0].": is in : ".$std[0][1].". Her Roll No. is: ".


$std[0][2].".<br>";
echo $std[1][0].": is in: ".$std[1][1].". His Roll No. is: ".
$std[1][2].".<br>";
echo $std[2][0].": is in: ".$std[2][1].". His Roll No. is: ".
$std[2][2].".<br>";
echo $std[3][0].": is in: ".$std[3][1].". Her Roll No. is: ".
$std[3][2].".<br>";
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

Row number 0 <?php


•Romya $std = array (
•BCA array("Romya","BCA",18),
•18 array("Madhur","BCA",13),
Row number 1 array("Vishal","BCA",2),
•Madhur array("Kirat","BCA",15)
•BCA );
•13
Row number 2 for ($row = 0; $row < 4; $row++) {
•Vishal echo "<p><b>Row number $row</b></p>";
•BCA echo "<ul>";
•2 for ($col = 0; $col < 3; $col++) {
Row number 3 echo "<li>".$std[$row][$col]."</li>";
•Kirat }
•BCA echo "</ul>";
•15 }
?>

</body>
</html>
PHP - Sort Functions For Arrays

•sort() - sort arrays in ascending order

•rsort() - sort arrays in descending order

•asort() - sort associative arrays in ascending order, according to the value

•ksort() - sort associative arrays in ascending order, according to the key

•arsort() - sort associative arrays in descending order, according to the value

•krsort() - sort associative arrays in descending order, according to the key


PHP Array Functions
1) PHP array() function
 PHP array() function creates and returns an array. It allows you to create
indexed, associative and multidimensional arrays.
 <?php
$season=array("summer","winter","spring","autumn");
echo "Season are: $season[0], $season[1], $season[2] and $season[3]";
?>
 Output:
Season are: summer, winter, spring and autumn
PHP Array Functions
 2) PHP array_change_key_case() function:
PHP array_change_key_case() function changes the case of all key of an array.
Note: It changes case of key only.
 Syntax
array array_change_key_case ( array $array [, int $case = CASE_LOWER ] )
 Example
<?php

$salary=array("Sno"=>"550000","Vimal"=>"250000","Ratan"=>"200000");
print_r(array_change_key_case($salary,CASE_UPPER));
?>
 Output:
Array ( [SNO] => 550000 [VIMAL] => 250000 [RATAN] => 200000 )
PHP Array Functions
 Example
<?php

$salary=array("Sonoo"=>"550000","Vimal"=>"250000","Ratan"=>"200000
"); print_r(array_change_key_case($salary,CASE_LOWER));
?>
 Output:
Array ( [sonoo] => 550000 [vimal] => 250000 [ratan] => 200000 )
PHP Array Functions

3) PHP array_chunk() function


PHP array_chunk() function splits array into chunks.
By using array_chunk() method, you can divide array into many parts.
Syntax
array array_chunk ( array $array , int $size [, bool $preserve_keys = false ] )
Example
<?php

$salary=array("Sonoo"=>"550000","Vimal"=>"250000","Ratan"=>"200000");
print_r(array_chunk($salary,2));
?>
Output:
Array ( [0] => Array ( [0] => 550000 [1] => 250000 ) [1] => Array ( [0] => 200000 ) )
PHP Array Functions
 4) PHP count() function
 PHP count() function counts all elements in an array.
 Example
<?php
$season=array("summer","winter","spring","autumn");
echo count($season);
?>
 Output:

PHP Array Functions
7) PHP array_search() function
PHP array_search() function searches the specified value in an array. It returns key if
search is successful.

Example

$season=array("summer","winter","spring","autumn");
$key=array_search("spring",$season);
echo $key;
?>
Output:
2
8) PHP array_intersect() function
PHP array_intersect() function returns the intersection of two array.
In other words, it returns the matching elements of two array.
Syntax
array array_intersect ( array $array1 , array $array2 [, array $... ] )
Example
