PHP - Multidimensional Arrays

• A multidimensional array is an array containing one or more arrays.


• The dimension of an array indicates the number of indices you need to select an
element.
• For a two-dimensional array you need two indices to select an element

Name Stock Sold

Volvo 22 18

BMW 15 13

Saab 5 2

Land Rover 17 15
$cars = array (array("Volvo",22,18),array("BMW",15,13),

array("Saab",5,2),array("Land Rover",17,15) );

To get access to the elements of the $cars array we must point to the two indices (row
and column):
echo $cars[1][0].": In stock: ".$cars[1][1].", sold: ".$cars[1][2].".<br>";
echo $cars[2][0].": In stock: ".$cars[2][1].", sold: ".$cars[2][2].".<br>";
echo $cars[3][0].": In stock: ".$cars[3][1].", sold: ".$cars[3][2].".<br>";
We can also put a for loop inside another for loop to get the elements
of the $cars array (we still have to point to the two indices):
for ($row = 0; $row < 4; $row++)
{
echo "<p><b>Row number $row</b></p>";
echo "<ul>";
for ($col = 0; $col < 3; $col++)
{
echo
"<li>".$cars[$row][$col]."</li>";
}
echo "</ul>";
}

Array Manipulation Functions
• extract()
• Compact()
• array_flip()
• list()
• array_slice()
• array_chunk()
• Implode()
• Explode()
• Array_keys()
• Array_values()
• Array_key_exist()
Compact()
• Compact() function works opposite to extract() function,the function
converts a group of variables into an array
• Syntax:
• Compact(var1,var2,….,…);
• Where var1,var2,…… are previously defined variables
Compact() example
<html>
<head><title></title></head>
<body>
<?php Output
$rollno=1;
Array ( [rollno] => 1
$name="Sachin"; [name] => Sachin
$city="Pune"; [city] => Pune )
$studinfo=compact("rollno","name","city");
echo "<pre>";
print_r($studinfo);
echo "</pre>";?>
</body>
</html>
PHP extract() Function
• This function uses array keys as variable names and values as variable
values.
• For each element it will create a variable in the current symbol table.
• This function returns the number of variables extracted on success.
Syntax
extract(array, extract_rules, prefix)
Parameter Values
Parameter Description

1. array Required. Specifies the array to use

2. extract_rules Optional. The extract() function checks for invalid variable names and collisions with
existing variable names. This parameter specifies how invalid and colliding names are
treated.Possible values:
•EXTR_OVERWRITE - Default. On collision, the existing variable is overwritten
•EXTR_SKIP - On collision, the existing variable is not overwritten
•EXTR_PREFIX_SAME - On collision, the variable name will be given a prefix
•EXTR_PREFIX_ALL - All variable names will be given a prefix

3. prefix Optional. If EXTR_PREFIX_SAME, EXTR_PREFIX_ALL, EXTR_PREFIX_INVALID or


EXTR_PREFIX_IF_EXISTS are used in the extract_rules parameter, a specified prefix is
required.

This parameter specifies the prefix. The prefix is automatically separated from the
array key by an underscore character.
extract() example
<?php
$id=12;
$job="Worker";
$emp=array("id"=>123,
printing v prefixed variables
"name"=>"Sai", 123
"job"=>"manager"); Sai
manager
extract($emp,EXTR_PREFIX_ALL,"v");
echo" <br><b>printing v prefixed variables<b><br>";
echo $v_id."<br> $v_name<br>$v_job";

?>
array_flip()
• Definition and Usage
• The array_flip() function flips/exchanges all keys with their associated
values in an array.
Syntax
• array_flip(array)

Parameter Description

array Required. Specifies an array of key/value pairs to be flipped


# Example array_flip()
<?php
$Emp=array("id"=>"100", foreach ($Emp as $k=>$v)
{
"name"=>"Sahil",
echo " $k=> $v <br>";
"city"=>"Pune"); }
$empflip=array_flip($Emp); echo "<br>";
foreach ($empflip as $k=>$v)
{
echo " $k=> $v <br>";
}
?>
list()
Definition and Usage
The list() function is used to assign values to a list of variables in one
operation.
Syntax
list(var1, var2, ...)=$arr1

Parameter Description

var1 Required. The first variable to assign a value to

var2,... Optional. More variables to assign values to


Example
//copies values of array in variables
<?php
$cars=array("Toyata","Volvo","BMW");
list($car1,$car2,$car3)=$cars; //Copy values of array in variable
echo "<br> $car1";
echo "<br> $car2";
echo "<br> $car3";
?>
PHP array_slice() Function
Definition and Usage
• The array_slice() function returns selected parts of an array.
Syntax
• array_slice(array, start, length, preserve)
• Note: If the array have string keys, the returned array will always preserve
the keys
array Required. Specifies an array

start Required. Numeric value. Specifies where the function will start the
slice(index value)
length Optional. Numeric value. Specifies the length of the returned array.

preserve •Optional. Specifies if the function should preserve or reset the


keys.
•Possible values:true –
•Preserve keys
•false - Default. Reset keys
Example : array_slice() method
<?php
$list=array("john","jonhy","janardan");
$list1=array_slice($list,0,2);
print_r($list);
echo "<br>";
print_r($list1);
?>
PHP array_chunk() Function
Definition and Usage
• The array_chunk() function splits an array into chunks of new arrays.
Syntax
• array_chunk(array, size, preserve_key)
Parameter Values
Parameter Description
array Required. Specifies the array to use
size Required. An integer that specifies the size of each
chunk
preserve_k •Optional. Possible values:
ey •true – Preserves the keys
false – Default. Re indexes the chunk numerically
Example array_chunk() Function

<?php
$cars=array("Volvo","BMW","Toyota","Honda","Mercedes","Opel");
print_r(array_chunk($cars,2));
?>
Output->
Array ( [0] => Array ( [0] => Volvo [1] => BMW ) [1] => Array ( [0] =>
