array_key_exists
It should be noted that the inverse function to keys (which converts keys to values) is array_count_values (which converts values to keys). This is needed to use things like array_intersect_key. Could go in several places. Took me a while to figure it out.
array_keys
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
array_keys — 배열의 모든 키를 반환
설명
array_keys()는 input 배열에서 숫자와 문자열의 키를 반환한다.
선택 인수 search_value가 지정되면, 그 값에 대한 키만 반환한다. 그렇지 않으면, input의 모든 키를 반환한다. PHP 5부터, strict 인수를 사용해서 자료형을 포함하여 비교(===)할 수 있습니다.
인수
- input
-
반환할 키를 가진 배열.
- search_value
-
지정하면, 이 값들을 가진 키만 반환합니다.
- strict
-
PHP 5부터, 이 인수는 검색 중에 엄격한 비교(===)를 하도록 합니다.
반환값
input에 있는 모든 키의 배열을 반환합니다.
예제
Example #1 array_keys() 예제
<?php
$array = array(0 => 100, "color" => "red");
print_r(array_keys($array));
$array = array("blue", "red", "green", "blue", "blue");
print_r(array_keys($array, "blue"));
$array = array("color" => array("blue", "red", "green"),
"size" => array("small", "medium", "large"));
print_r(array_keys($array));
?>
위 예제의 출력:
Array
(
[0] => 0
[1] => color
)
Array
(
[0] => 0
[1] => 3
[2] => 4
)
Array
(
[0] => color
[1] => size
)

I was trying to figure out how to normalize an array with numerical keys. Since I was doing for() for a lot of things, but only replacing it if the conditions were right, I wound up with off ball arrays I couldn't access. That being said, I looked for a method of normalizing the array and couldn't find one, so I built my own. I'm not sure how to go about making it recursive, but I didn't need that feature for my own, so I just went without recursion.
//This will take array([5] => "test1", [4] => "test2", [9] => "test3") into array([0] => "test1", [1] => "test2", [2] => "test3") so you can access it easier.
function normalize_array($array){
$newarray = array();
$array_keys = array_keys($array);
$i=0;
foreach($array_keys as $key){
$newarray[$i] = $array[$key];
$i++;
}
return $newarray;
}

Simple ways to prefixing arrays;
<?php
function array_keys_prefix($arr, $pref = "") {
$rarr = array();
foreach ($arr as $key => $val) {
$rarr[$pref.$key] = $val;
}
return $rarr;
}
function array_keys_prefix_multi($arr, $pref = "") {
$rarr = array();
foreach ($arr as $key => $val) {
$rarr[] = array_keys_prefix($val, $pref);
}
return $rarr;
}
// $a = array("foo" => "FOO", "bar" => "BAR", "baz" => "BAZ"); // or
$a = array("foo" => "FOO", "bar" => "BAR", "baz" => array(1,2,3));
print_r(array_keys_prefix($a, "my_"));
// db fetch...
$products = array(
array("id" => 1, "name" => "Foo"),
array("id" => 2, "name" => "Bar")
);
print_r(array_keys_prefix_multi($products, "product_"));
?>
Array
(
[my_foo] => FOO
[my_bar] => BAR
[my_baz] => Array
(
[0] => 1
[1] => 2
[2] => 3
)
)
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[product_id] => 1
[product_name] => Foo
)
[1] => Array
(
[product_id] => 2
[product_name] => Bar

Sorry for my english...
I wrote a function to get keys of arrays recursivelly...
<?php
function recursive_keys($input, $search_value = null){
$output = ($search_value !== null ? array_keys($input, $search_value) : array_keys($input)) ;
foreach($input as $sub){
if(is_array($sub)){
$output = ($search_value !== null ? array_merge($output, recursive_keys($sub, $search_value)) : array_merge($output, recursive_keys($sub))) ;
}
}
return $output ;
}
?>
I hope it will be usefull

It's worth noting that if you have keys that are long integer, such as '329462291595', they will be considered as such on a 64bits system, but will be of type string on a 32 bits system.
for example:
<?php
$importantKeys = array('329462291595' =>null, 'ZZ291595' => null);
foreach(array_keys($importantKeys) as $key){
echo gettype($key)."\n";
}
?>
will return on a 64 bits system:
<?php
integer
string
?>
but on a 32 bits system:
<?php
string
string
?>
I hope it will save someone the huge headache I had :)

Sometimes we want to find out the last added numerical key right after we use " array_push($array, $value) " or " $array[] = $value ". This can be achieved by calling:
<?php
return array_pop(array_keys($array));

Here's a function I needed to collapse an array, in my case from a database query. It takes an array that contains key-value pairs and returns an array where they are actually the key and value.
<?php
function array_collapse($arr, $x, $y) {
$carr = array();
while ($el = current($arr)) {
$carr[ $el[$x] ] = $el[$y];
next($arr);
}
return $carr;
}
?>
Example usage (pseudo-database code):
<?php
$query = db_query('SELECT name, value FROM properties');
$result = db_returnAll($query);
/* This will return an array like so:
[
['name' -> 'color', 'value' -> 'blue'],
['name' -> 'style', 'value' -> 'wide-format'],
['name' -> 'weight', 'value' -> 3.6],
['name' -> 'name', 'value' -> 'Waerdthing']
]
*/
$propArr = array_collapse($result, 'name', 'value');
/* Now this array looks like:
[
['color' -> 'blue'],
['style' -> 'wide-format'],
['weight' -> 3.6],
['name' -> 'Waerdthing'],
*/
?>

An alternative to RQuadling at GMail dot com's array_remove() function:
<?php
function array_remove(array $array, $value, $strict=false)
{
return array_diff_key($array, array_flip(array_keys($array, $value, $strict)));
}
?>

If you want to remove a value from an array, then there is no direct mechanism.
The following function uses the array_keys() function to find the key(s) of the value that you want to remove and then removes the elements for that key.
I've also given some examples and the output.
<?php
/**
* array array_remove ( array input, mixed search_value [, bool strict] )
**/
function array_remove(array &$a_Input, $m_SearchValue, $b_Strict = False) {
$a_Keys = array_keys($a_Input, $m_SearchValue, $b_Strict);
foreach($a_Keys as $s_Key) {
unset($a_Input[$s_Key]);
}
return $a_Input;
}
?>
Beside scalar variables (integers, floats, strings, boolean), you can also use arrays as the values you want to remove.
<?php
// Results in array(8, 8.0, '8', '8.0')
array_remove(array(8, 8.0, '8', '8.0', array(8), array('8')), array(8));
// Results in array(8, 8.0, '8', '8.0', array('8'))
array_remove(array(8, 8.0, '8', '8.0', array(8), array('8')), array(8), True);

This function will extract keys from a multidimensional array
<?php
function multiarray_keys($ar) {
foreach($ar as $k => $v) {
$keys[] = $k;
if (is_array($ar[$k]))
$keys = array_merge($keys, multiarray_keys($ar[$k]));
}
return $keys;
}
?>
Example code:
<?php
$array = array("color" => array("1stcolor" => "blue", "2ndcolor" => "red", "3rdcolor" => "green"),
"size" => array("small", "medium", "large"));
echo "<pre>";
print_r($array);
echo "</pre>";
echo "<pre>";
print_r(multiarray_keys($array));
echo "</pre>";
?>
Example output:
Array
(
[color] => Array
(
[1stcolor] => blue
[2ndcolor] => red
[3rdcolor] => green
)
[size] => Array
(
[0] => small
[1] => medium

Replace a key in an associative array, preserving the original order of keys and elements:
<?php
if (!function_exists('array_combine')) { // ONLY EXISTS IN PHP5
function array_combine($keys, $values) {
if (count($keys) != count($values)) {
return false; }
foreach($keys as $key) { $array[$key] = array_shift($values); }
return $array; }
} // END IF FUNCTION EXISTS
$keys = array_keys($array);
$values = array_values($array);
foreach ($keys as $k => $v) {
if ($v == "MANAGEMENT FEE CHARGE") { $keys[$k] = "MANAGEMENT FEES"; }
}
$array = array_combine($keys, $values);
?>

might be worth noting in the docs that not all associative (string) keys are a like, output of the follow bit of code demonstrates - might be a handy introduction to automatic typecasting in php for some people (and save a few headaches):
<?php
$r = array("0"=>"0","1"=>"1","" =>"2"," "=>"3");
echo 'how php sees this array: array("0"=>"0","1"=>"1","" =>"2"," "=>"3")',"\n-----------\n";
var_dump($r); print_r($r); var_export($r);
echo "\n-----------\n",'var_dump("0","1",""," ") = ',"\n-----------\n";
var_dump("0","1",""," ");
?>
OUTPUTS:
how php sees this array: array("0"=>"0","1"=>"1","" =>"2"," "=>"3")
-----------
array(4) {
[0]=>
string(1) "0"
[1]=>
string(1) "1"
[""]=>
string(1) "2"
[" "]=>
string(1) "3"
}
Array
(
[0] => 0
[1] => 1
[] => 2
[ ] => 3
)
array (
0 => '0',
1 => '1',
'' => '2',
' ' => '3',
)

var_dump("0","1",""," ") =

string(1) "0"
string(1) "1"
string(0) ""

Here's how to get the first key, the last key, the first value or the last value of a (hash) array without explicitly copying nor altering the original array:
<?php
$array = array('first'=>'111', 'second'=>'222', 'third'=>'333');
// get the first key: returns 'first'
print array_shift(array_keys($array));
// get the last key: returns 'third'
print array_pop(array_keys($array));
// get the first value: returns '111'
print array_shift(array_values($array));
// get the last value: returns '333'
print array_pop(array_values($array));

The position of an element.
One can apply array_keys twice to get the position of an element from its key. (This is the reverse of the function by cristianDOTzuddas.) E.g., the following may output "yes, we have bananas at position 0".
<?php
$a = array("banana" => "yellow", "apple" = "red");
$k = get_some_fruit();
if (isset($a[$k]))
{
list($pos) = array_keys(array_keys($a), $k);
print "yes, we have {$k}s at position $pos\n";
}
?>
Not amazingly efficient, but I see no better alternative.

I was looking for a function that simply unset a variable amout of values from a one-dimensional array by key. I ended up with this (returns the array itself if no further parameter than the array is given, false with no params - does not change the source array)
usage: array_remove(array $input [, mixed key ...])
<?php
function array_remove() {
if ($stack = func_get_args()) {
$input = array_shift($stack);
foreach ($stack as $key) {
unset($input[$key]);
}
return $input;
}
return false;
}
?>
Test:
<?php
$a = array('a'=>'fun', 'b'=>3.14, 'sub'=> array('1', '2', '3'), 'd'=>'what', 'e' => 'xample', 5 => 'x');
print_r($a);
print_r(array_remove($a, 'd', 'b', 5, 'sub'));
?>
Output:
Array
(
[a] => fun
[b] => 3.14
[sub] => Array
(
[0] => 1
[1] => 2
[2] => 3
)
[d] => what
[e] => xample
[5] => x
)
Array
(
[a] => fun
[e] => xample
)
Hope this helps someone.

I was looking for a function that deletes either integer keys or string keys (needed for my caching).
As I didn't find a function I came up with my own solution.
I didn't find the propiest function to post to so I will post it here, hope you find it useful.
<?php
function array_extract($array, $extract_type = 1)
{
foreach ( $array as $key => $value )
{
if ( $extract_type == 1 && is_string($key) )
{
// delete string keys
unset($array[$key]);
}
elseif ( $extract_type == 2 && is_int($key) )
{
// delete integer keys
unset($array[$key]);
}
}
return $array;
}
?>
You can of course define constants to have a nicer look, I have chosen these: EXTR_INT = 1; EXTR_STRING = 2
EXTR_INT will return an array where keys are only integer while
EXTR_STRING will return an array where keys are only string
Have fun with it.

Note, that using array_key_exists() is rather inefficient. The overhead associated with calling a function makes it slower, than using isset($array[$key]), instead of array_key_exists($key, $array)
using isset() is usually about 1.3 times faster, according to my tests.

If you receive a bunch of variables and like to change most of them (or all of them for that matter), you can do something like this: (data has been sent to a page with POST)
<?php
$allKeys = array_keys($HTTP_POST_VARS);
for ($i=0;$i<count($allKeys);$i++)
{
$$allKeys[$i] = strtoupper($HTTP_POST_VARS[$allKeys[$i]]);
}
?>
This makes caracters (a-z) uppercase. This is just one way to use it, ofcourse.
Hope this helps someone understand the way to use array_keys() or give any ideas. :)

All the cool notes are gone from the site.
Here's an example of how to get all the variables passed to your program using the method on this page. This prints them out so you can see what you are doing.
<?php
while (list($key, $value) = each
(${"HTTP_".$REQUEST_METHOD."_VARS"}))
{
echo $key." = ".$value." ";
}
?>

Here is a way to use array_intersect on array keys rather than values:
<?php
$a = array("apple" => "red", "banana" => "yellow");
$z = array("apple" => "green", "peach" => "orange", "banana" => "rotten");
$intersected_keys = array_intersect(array_keys($a), array_keys($z));
print_r($intersected_keys);
?>
This will print:
Array ( [0] => apple [1] => banana )
