 What is an Array?
• An array is a special variable, which
A can hold more than one value at a time.
R
R
A • An array stores multiple values in one
Y
S single variable.
IN
P
H • An array is a data structure that stores
P
one or more similar type of values in a
single value.
Aoanan, Philip Michael F.
Castañeto, Kenneth F.
 Examples:
• Think of an array as a box of chocolates
A with slots inside. The box represents the
R
R array itself while the spaces containing
A chocolates represent the values stored
Y
S in the arrays.
IN
P
H • Egg cartons is an example of array.
P

• Also Checkerboard or Chess are

example of array. Aoanan, Philip Michael F.

 Three Different Kind of Arrays: 1
Numeric Arrays (Indexed Arrays)
A - An array with a numeric index.
R
R Values are stored and accessed in linear
A fashion.
Y
S - it use number as access keys. An
IN
P access key is reference to a
H memory slot in array variable. The
P
access key is used whenever we want
to read or assign a new value an
array element. Aoanan, Philip Michael F.

 Syntax: Numeric Arrays (Indexed Arrays)
<?php
A $variable_name[n] = value;
R
R ?>
A
Y
S or
IN
P
H <?php
P
$variable_name = array(n => value, …);
?>
Aoanan, Philip Michael F.
Castañeto, Kenneth F.
 Syntax: Numeric Arrays(Indexed Arrays)
Where,
A “$variable_name…” is the name of the
R
R variable
A “[n]” is the access index number of the
Y
S element
IN
P “value” is the value assigned to the array
H element.
P

 Three Different Kind of Arrays: 2
Associative Arrays
A - An array with strings as index. This
R
R stores element values in association
A with key values rather than in a
Y
S strict linear index order. It is differ
IN
P from numeric array in the sense
H that associative arrays use
P
descriptive names for id keys.
- Descriptive captions used as array
element access key. Aoanan, Philip Michael F.

<?php
A $variable_name['keyname'] = value;

R ?>
A

S or
IN
P
H <?php
P
$variable_name = array('keyname' =>
value);
?> Aoanan, Philip Michael F.
Castañeto, Kenneth F.
 Syntax: Associative Arrays
Where,
A “$variable_name…” is the name of the
R
R variable
A “[‘keyname’]” is the access index number
Y
S of the element
IN
P “value” is the value assigned to the array
H element.
P

NOTE: Don't keep associative array inside

double quote while printing otherwise it would
not return any value. Aoanan, Philip Michael F.

 Three Different Kind of Arrays: 3
Multidimensional Arrays
A - A multidimensional array is an array
R
R containing one or more arrays.
A - A multi-dimensional array each
Y
S element in the main array can also be
IN
P an array. And each element in the
H sub-array can be an array, and so on.
P
Values in the multi-dimensional array
are accessed using multiple index.

 PHP Array Operators

A
R
R
A
Y
S
IN
P The + operator returns the right-hand array appended to the left-hand
H array; for keys that exist in both arrays, the elements from the left-hand
P array will be used, and the matching elements from the right-hand
array will be ignored.

Aoanan, Philip Michael F.

Castañeto, Kenneth F.
 Examples : PHP Array Operators
Union Array Operator (+)
The union operator (+) which gives the union of two arrays based on the arrays’
keys. It does loose key matching and all keys of the second array are ignored if their
A equivalent key already exists in the first array. The rest of the keys (and the
R corresponding values) of the second array are appended to the first.
R
<?php
A $a = array('one','two');$b=array('three','four','five');
Y echo '$a + $b : ';
S print_r($a+$b);
IN
P echo ”<br>”;
echo '$b + $a : ';
H print_r($b+$a);
P ?>

Output:

$a + $b : Array ( [0] => one [1] => two [2] => five )
$b + $a : Array ( [0] => three [1] => four [2] => five )

 Examples : PHP Array Operators
Union Array Operator (+)
<?php
$a = array("a" => "apple", "b" => "banana");
A $b = array("a" => "pear", "b" => "strawberry", "c" => "cherry");
R $c = $a + $b; // Union of $a and $b
echo "Union of \$a and \$b : <br />";
R var_dump($c);
A $c = $b + $a; // Union of $b and $a
Y echo "<br />Union of \$b and \$a : <br />";
S var_dump($c);
IN ?>
P
H
P Output:

Union of $a and $b:

array(3) { ["a"]=> string(5) "apple" ["b"]=> string(6) banana" ["c"]=> string(6) "cherry" }
Union of $b and $a :
array(3) { ["a"]=> string(4) "pear" ["b"]=> string(10) "strawberry" ["c"]=> string(6) "cherry" }

 Examples : PHP Array Operators
Equality Array Operator (==)

The equality operator (==) checks whether two arrays are similar. The
A operator returns true if all key-value pairs in first array have equivalent
R key-value pairs in the second array. It matches values and keys loosely and
R the sequence of elements is ignored.
A
Y
S <?php
IN $a = array("1" => "apple", "0" => "banana");
P $b = array( "banana", "apple");
H var_dump($a == $b);
P ?>

Output:

bool(true)

 Examples : PHP Array Operators
Identity Array Operator (===)
The identity operator (===) checks if two arrays are identical.
The arrays are identical if both arrays:
have the same number of elements
A have the same key-value pairs
R have the same sequence of elements
R have the same data type of all corresponding values
A
However, for array keys, the identity operator matches loosely if a key is an integer and a
Y
similar string notation of the integer exists as a key in the other array. For a float vs. string
S key match, this operator goes strict.
IN
P <?php
H $array1 = array('0' => '0', '1' => '1', '2' => '2', '3' => '3');
P $array2 = array(0 => '0', 1 => '1', 2 => '2', 3 => '3');
var_dump($array1 === $array2);
?>

Output:

bool(true) Aoanan, Philip Michael F.

 Examples : PHP Array Operators
Inequality Array Operator (!=) (<>)
Inequality Array Operator is used to check if both arrays have the same elements or not.

A <?php
R
R $array1 = array("Java","Smalltalk","Objective-C","Perl");
A $array2 = array("Java","Smalltalk","Objective-C","Perl");
$array3 = array("Java","Smalltalk","Objective-
Y C","Perl",".Net");
S
IN echo var_dump($array1 != $array2) ."<br>";
P echo var_dump($array2 != $array3) ."<br>";
H echo var_dump($array2 <> $array1) ."<br>";
P ?>
Output:

bool(false)
bool(true)
bool(false)

 Examples : PHP Array Operators
Non-identity Array Operator (!==)
- Two arrays are Non-identity when the Keys and Values both are not equal.

The non-identity operator checks if two arrays are not identical. Again, this operator is the
A exact opposite of the identity operator, which means this operator returns false for a
R comparison of arrays if they are identical.
R
A <?php
Y $array1 = array("PHP", "Java");
S $array2 = array("1" => "Java", "0" => "PHP");
IN
P echo var_dump($array1 != $array2) ."<br>";
H echo var_dump($array1 !== $array2) ."<br>";
?>
P
Output:

bool(false)
bool(true)
