array_combine
(PHP 5)
array_combine — Erzeugt ein Array, indem es ein Array für die Schlüsel und ein anderes für die Werte verwendet
Beschreibung
array array_combine
( array $keys
, array $values
)
Gibt ein array zurück, in dem die Werte des keys Array als Schlüssel und die Werte aus dem values Array als die zugehörigen Werte verwendet werden.
Gibt FALSE zurück, wenn die Anzahl von Elementen nicht in beiden Arrays identisch ist oder die Arrays leer sind.
Beispiel #1 Ein einfaches array_combine() Beispiel
<?php
$a = array('gruen', 'rot', 'gelb');
$b = array('avokado', 'apfel', 'banane');
$c = array_combine($a, $b);
print_r($c);
?>
Das oben gezeigte Beispiel erzeugt folgende Ausgabe:
Array ( [gruen] => avokado [rot] => apfel [gelb] => banane )
Siehe auch array_merge(), array_walk(), und array_values().

This may be obvious, but I don't see anything about it on the manual page, so a friendly warning... The array you are using as keys must have all unique values. If not, array elements get dropped.
<?php
$arr_notUnique = array('one' , 'one' , 'two');
$arr_b = array('red' , 'green' , 'blue');
$arr_combo = array_combine($arr_notUnique, $arr_b);
?>
Results: Array ( [one] => green [two] => blue )
NOT: Array ( [one] => red [one] => green [two] => blue )

Also, Khalys function only works if keys of both arrays are the same because array_combine ignores keys. An easy way to ignore them is by taking array_values(). Floats can be casted to strings to avoid overwriting.
So, the PHP4 function could look something like this:
<?php
function array_combine($arr1, $arr2) {
$out = array();
$arr1 = array_values($arr1);
$arr2 = array_values($arr2);
foreach($arr1 as $key1 => $value1) {
$out[(string)$value1] = $arr2[$key1];
}
return $out;
}
?>

Khaly's PHP4 code below does not work correctly in all cases. Consider when your array consists of floats:
<?php
$okay = array(0, 10, 20, 30);
$not_okay = array(0, 0.5, 1, 1.5);
$foo = array_combine($okay, $okay);
$bar = array_combine($not_okay, $not_okay);
/*
Results:
$foo = {
[0]=> int(0)
[10]=> int(10)
[20]=> int(20)
[30]=> int(30)
}
$bar = {
[0]=> float(0.5)
[1]=> float(1.5)
}
*/
?>
What can you do? In my case, I was just zipping up some select-box options, so I converted everything in my floats to strings.

This is the function for PHP4 :
<?php
function array_combine($arr1,$arr2) {
$out = array();
foreach($arr1 as $key1 => $value1) {
$out[$value1] = $arr2[$key1];
}
return $out
}
?>

Some tips for merging same values in an array
<?php
$array1 = array(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12);
$array2 = array(1,2,3,13);
$merged = array_merge($array1,$array2);
// output normal array_merge
echo '<pre>After array_merge :
';
print_r($merged);
echo '</pre>';
// do double flip for merging values in an array
$merged = array_flip($merged);
$merged = array_flip($merged);
// Output after
echo '<pre>After Double Flip :
';
print_r($merged);
echo '</pre>';
?>
Output ::
After array_merge :
Array
(
[0] => 1
[1] => 2
[2] => 3
[3] => 4
[4] => 5
[5] => 6
[6] => 7
[7] => 8
[8] => 9
[9] => 10
[10] => 11
[11] => 12
[12] => 1
[13] => 2
[14] => 3
[15] => 13
)
After Double Flip :
Array
(
[12] => 1
[13] => 2
[14] => 3
[3] => 4
[4] => 5
[5] => 6
[6] => 7
[7] => 8
[8] => 9
[9] => 10
[10] => 11
[11] => 12
[15] => 13
)

Use that code to group an array by its first element.
<?
function groupbyfirst($array)
{
foreach ($array as $row)
{
$firstkey = array_keys($row);
$firstkey = $firstkey[0];
$key = $row[$firstkey];
unset($row[$firstkey]);
$newarray[$key][] = $row;
}
return $newarray;
}
?>
Example:
<?
$array =
Array(
0 => Array('color' => 'red','name' => 'apple', 'quantity' => '3'),
1 => Array('color' => 'green','name' => 'pear', 'quantity' => '2'),
2 => Array('color' => 'yellow','name' => 'corn', 'quantity' => '3'),
3 => Array('color' => 'blue','name' => 'grape', 'quantity' => '4'),
4 => Array('color' => 'yellow','name' => 'banana', 'quantity' => '13'),
);
$output = groupbyfirst($array);
print_r($output);
?>
will return:
Array
(
[red] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => apple [quantity] => 3 ) )
[green] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => pear [quantity] => 2 ) )
[yellow] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => corn [quantity] => 3 ), [1] => Array ( [name] => banana [quantity] => 13 ) )
[blue] => Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => grape [quantity] => 4 ))
)
Or you can use mysql recordset:
<?
while ($row=mysql_fetch_array($result,MYSQL_ASSOC))
{
$firstkey = array_keys($row);
$firstkey = $firstkey[0];
$key = $row[$firstkey];
unset($row[$firstkey]);
$newarray[$key][] = $row;
}
?>
