Funkcie poľa
Úvod
Tieto funkcie vám umožňujú vzájomne pôsobiť na polia a manipulovať s nimi rozličnými spôsobmi. Polia sú dôležité pre ukladanie, správu a obsluhovanie sád premenných.
Podporované sú jednoduché i multi-dimenzionálne polia a môžu byť vytvorené buď užívateľom alebo inou funkciou. Existujú špecifické funkcie slúžiace na zaplnenie polí z dotazov databáz a niektoré funkcie vracajú polia.
Detajlné vysvetlenie ako sa polia implementujú a ako sa v PHP používajú si môžete pozrieť v sekcii manuálu Polia. Tiež pozri Operátory poľa pre ďalšie spôsoby ako manipulovať s poľami.
Požiadavky
Žiadne externé knižnice nie sú potrebné na vybudovanie tohto rozšírenia.
Inštalácia
Nie je potrebná žiadna inštalácia na použitie týchto funkcií; sú časťou jadra PHP.

This is the shorter way to flatten a array:
<?php
function array_flatten($a) {
foreach($a as $k=>$v) $a[$k]=(array)$v;
return call_user_func_array(array_merge,$a);
}
?>

I see a lot of people here writing complex functions to convert an array to a string, for use with Javascript or other things (possibly even databases, which would be bad).
For Javascript, the most efficient way would be JSON (http://www.php.net/json_encode). For normal use, serialize() (http://www.php.net/serialize) is your friend.

@margol:
<?php
$tuple_array = array(array('key1' => 'val1'), array('key2' => 'val2'));
list($key, $val) = each(array_pop($tuple_array));
?>
But, why not use a two element array instead of a single-element associative array?
<?php
$tuple_array = array(array('key1', 'val1'), array('key2','val2'));
list($key,$val) = array_pop($tuple_array);
?>

More intuitive tuple support would be nice :)
But for those scratching their heads, like I did, to extract a tuple from an array of tuples, do something like:
$tuple = array_pop($tuple_array);
$key = key($tuple);
$val = $tuple[$key];

Here is how you refresh the expiration time for multiple cookies:
// get the cookie names
$keys=array_keys($_COOKIE);
// loop through all the cookies and update the exp. time
for ($i=0; $i<count($_COOKIE);$i++)
setcookie( $keys[$i], $_COOKIE[$keys[$i]], time()+3600);
you can use this in authentication validate file to keep the session up.

This function takes an array, a key and a value. If the key is not an array, it acts just like $array[$key] =& $value; If the key is an array, it recurses in the array, creating nested arrays as necessary.
Example:
$array = array('A' => array('B' => 'phi'));
$key = array('A', 'Z');
$value = 'gamma';
arraySet($array, $key, $value);
$array should now be:
array('A' => array('B' => 'phi', 'C' => 'gamma'));
This is useful for constructing nested arrays from sets of filesystem paths (e.g. 'A/B/C') or structured variable names (e.g. 'A.B.C' or 'A[B][C]')
Example:
arraySet($array, preg_split('/\//', $path, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY), $value);
function arraySet(array &$array, $key, &$value)
{
if (is_array($key)) {
$keyComponent = array_shift($key);
if (empty($key)) {
$array[$keyComponent] =& $value;
return;
}
if (!is_array($array[$keyComponent])) {
$array[$keyComponent] = array();
}
PHP_CodeSniffer_arraySet($array[$keyComponent], $key, $value);
return;
}
$array[$key] =& $value;
}

I haven't completely figured out when or why an array gets referenced or copied, but it gave me quite the headache..
So i wrote a function which recursively copies an array while preserving keys and also clones objects if encountered
<?php
/**
* make a recursive copy of an array
*
* @param array $aSource
* @return array copy of source array
*/
function array_copy ($aSource) {
// check if input is really an array
if (!is_array($aSource)) {
throw new Exception("Input is not an Array");
}
// initialize return array
$aRetAr = array();
// get array keys
$aKeys = array_keys($aSource);
// get array values
$aVals = array_values($aSource);
// loop through array and assign keys+values to new return array
for ($x=0;$x<count($aKeys);$x++) {
// clone if object
if (is_object($aVals[$x])) {
$aRetAr[$aKeys[$x]]=clone $aVals[$x];
// recursively add array
} elseif (is_array($aVals[$x])) {
$aRetAr[$aKeys[$x]]=array_copy ($aVals[$x]);
// assign just a plain scalar value
} else {
$aRetAr[$aKeys[$x]]=$aVals[$x];
}
}
return $aRetAr;
}
?>
I hope i can save someone else's aspirine with this ;)

Here's a function I wrote to combine the values in an array in all different ways, and which returns a two-dimensional array as a byref result.
E.g.
if called:
comb(array(1, 2, 3), $r);
then $r would be:
1 2 3
1 3 2
2 1 3
2 3 1
3 1 2
3 2 1
<?php
function comb($arr, &$rarr, $vtemp = array()){
foreach($arr as $key => $value){
$vtemp2 = $vtemp;
$vtemp2[] = $value;
$atemp = $arr;
unset($atemp[$key]);
if(count($atemp) > 0){
comb($atemp, $rarr, $vtemp2);
} else {
$t = array();
foreach($vtemp2 as $val){
$t[] = $val;
}
$rarr[] = $t;
}
}
}
?>

Here are two more functions handling string2array and access array by string. It's useful if you want to access an array in xpath-style, such as parse_ini_file return values with $process_sections = TRUE.
<?php
function createArrayByString($string, $separator, $value = NULL)
{
if (strlen($string) > 0) {
$splitter = explode($separator, $string);
$index = array_shift($splitter); // get first element
$function = __FUNCTION__;
return array($index => $function(implode($separator, $splitter), $separator, $value));
}
return $value;
}
function accessArrayByString($array, $string, $separator, $default = NULL)
{
if (!is_array($array)) {
return empty($string) ? $array : $default;
}
@list ($key, $rest) = explode($separator, $string, 2); // @ needed for last access
$function = __FUNCTION__;
return array_key_exists($key, $array)
? $function($array[$key], $rest, $separator, $default)
: $default;
}
$string = "one.two.three.four";
$separator = ".";
$array = createArrayByString($string, $separator, "standard value");
$return = accessArrayByString($array, $string, $separator, "element not found");
var_dump($array); // should return array("one" => array("two" => array("three" => array("four" => "standard value"))))
var_dump($return); // should return "standard value";
?>
change the function name to what ever you want, the recursive call uses __FUNCTION__ for re-call.

$this->nb_elements = count($this->liste);
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
public function insert_at($indice, $valeur) {
if ($indice > 0 && $indice < $this->nb_elements) {
for ($i = $this->nb_elements; $i != $indice; $i--) {
$this->liste[$i] = $this->liste[$i -1];
}
$this->liste[$indice] = $valeur;
$this->nb_elements = count($this->liste);
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
public function remove_at($indice) {
if ($indice > 0 && $indice < $this->nb_elements) {
for ($i = $indice; $i != $this->nb_elements - 1; $i++) {
$this->liste[$i] = $this->liste[$i +1];

array_pop($this->liste);

A usefull function that returns a flat array.
I use it in a template system. Let the user pass a multidimensional array. Convert it using my function. Then use
<?php
$array = flatten($array,'','{$','}','->');
echo str_replace(array_keys($array),array_values($array),$template)
/**
* Flattens out an multidimension array
* Using the last parameters you can define the new key based on the old path.
* @param array $array A multidimension array
* @param string $prefix Internal perfix parameter - leave empty.
* @param string $start_string What string should start the final array key?
* @param string $end_string What string should end the final array key?
* @param string $seperator The string that should seperate the piecies in final array key path
* @return array Returns the flat array
*/
function flatten($array, $start_string= '{$',$end_string= '}',$seperator='->',$prefix="") {
$return = array();
foreach($array as $key=>$value) {
if (is_array($value)) {
$return = array_merge($return, Parser_method_replace::flatten($value, $prefix.$key.$seperator,$start_string,$end_string,$seperator));
} else
$return [$start_string.$prefix.$key.$end_string] = $value;
}
return $return;
}
}
?>
Example:
$template = 'My string with replacement {$test->subkey}';
{$test->subkey} will get replaced with $array['test']['subkey']

if some one will need to convert array to php code use this function:
DEFINE('OFFSET_DELIMETER', "\t");
function array2php($array, $offset = OFFSET_DELIMETER) {
$text = '';
foreach($array as $k => $v) {
if (is_array($v)) {
$text .= "{$offset}'{$k}' => array(\n".array2php($v, $offset.OFFSET_DELIMETER)."$offset)";
} else {
$text .= "{$offset}'{$k}' => ".(is_string($v)? "'$v'": $v);
}
$text .= ",\n";
}
if ($len = strlen($text)) $text[$len - 2] = " ";
return $text;
}

Regarding cyberchrist at futura dot net's function. It makes an unnecessary array_merge(); the elements of $b that are merged with those of $a are immediately removed again by the array_diff(). The "limiting to known values" is entirely unnecessary, in other words: arrays already only contain "known values".
Also, the description and function only address the issue of whether $a is a subset of $b, not whether it is a proper subset. For $a to be a proper subset of $b, it must also be the case that $b is not a subset of $a.
Taking those points into account (and a personal aesthetic dislike of "if(test) return true; else return false;" gives:
<?php
function is_subset($a, $b)
{
return count(array_diff($a,$b))==0;
}
function is_proper_subset($a, $b)
{
return is_subset($a, $b) && !is_subset($b, $a);
}
?>

Lately, dealing with databases, I've been finding myself needing to know if one array, $a, is a proper subset of $b.
Mathematically, this is asking (in set theory) [excuse the use of u and n instead of proper Unicode):
( A u B ) n ( ~ B )
What this does is it first limits to known values, then looks for anything outside of B but in the union of A and B (which would be those things in A which are not also in B).
If any value exists in this set, then A is NOT a proper subset of B, because a value exists in A but not in B. For A to be a proper subset, all values in A must be in B.
I'm sure this could easily be done any number of ways but this seems to work for me. It's not got a lot of error detection such as sterilizing inputs or checking input types.
// bool array_subset( array, array )
// Returns true if $a is a proper subset of $b, returns false otherwise.
function array_subset( $a, $b )
{
if( count( array_diff( array_merge($a,$b), $b)) == 0 )
return true;
else
return false;

to 2g4wx3:
i think better way for this is using JSON, if you have such module in your PHP. See json.org.
to convert JS array to JSON string: arr.toJSONString();
to convert JSON string to PHP array: json_decode($jsonString);
You can also stringify objects, numbers, etc.

I needed a function to convert a php array into a javascript array.
No problem i found it on "the net".
But the function i found wasn't good enough, instead of return a string with javascript-array it echoed directly everything.
I wanted to write the string to a file, when calling the function out of my function libary.
Secondly, there where minor "bugs" in the script, when you're original array contained characters like line breaks(\r\n,..), or quotes('), it would hack up the javascript array
Sow, i changed the function and fixed the bug.
<?php

//Changlog by g4wx3: echo replaced by $output, added function output
function output($string) //make javascript ready
{
$string = str_replace( array( '\\' , '\'' ), array('\\\\', '\\\'') , $string); //-> for javascript array
$string = str_replace( array("\r\n", "\r", "\n") , '<br>' , $string); //nl2br
return $string;
}
function arrayToJS4($array, $baseName ) {
//Write out the initial array definition
//v4 echo ($baseName . " = new Array(); \r\n ");
$output = $baseName . " = new Array(); \r\n ";
//Reset the array loop pointer
reset ($array);
//Use list() and each() to loop over each key/value
//pair of the array
while (list($key, $value) = each($array)) {
if (is_numeric($key)) {
//A numeric key, so output as usual
$outKey = "[" . $key . "]";
} else {
//A string key, so output as a string
$outKey = "['" . $key . "']";
}
if (is_array($value)) {
//The value is another array, so simply call
//another instance of this function to handle it
$output .= arrayToJS4($value, $baseName . $outKey);
} else {
//Output the key declaration
//v4 echo ($baseName . $outKey . " = ");
$output .= $baseName . $outKey . " = ";
//Now output the value
if (is_string($value)) {

$output .= "'" . output($value) . "'; \r\n ";

You can use this for printing $_GET array, for example

heres a function from http://www.linksback.org Feedback welcome, of course! Public domain, yadda yadda.
function mySort(&$array,$key) {
if (!is_array($array) || count($array) == 0) return true;
$assocSortCompare = '$a = $a["'.$key.'"]; $b = $b["'.$key.'"];';
if (is_numeric($array[0][$key])) {
$assocSortCompare.= ' return ($a == $b) ? 0 : (($a < $b) ? -1 : 1);';
} else {
$assocSortCompare.= ' return strcmp($a,$b);';
}
$assocSortCompare = create_function('$a,$b',$assocSortCompare);
return usort($array,$assocSortCompare);
}

Bugs happen, but how can people post functions that WON'T EVEN COMPILE! I truly detest finding a cool code snippet or function and then having to debug them. Sorry for the rant, but I have experienced this scenario a number of times. TEST YOUR CODE, THEN POST!
Here is a revised and corrected previously posted function ArrayDepth, which had 3 bugs and yes, would not compile.
function ArrayDepth($Array,$DepthCount=-1) {
// Find maximum depth of an array
// Usage: int ArrayDepth( array $array )
// returns integer with max depth
// if Array is a string or an empty array it will return 0
$DepthArray=array(0);
$DepthCount++;
$Depth = 0;
if (is_array($Array))
foreach ($Array as $Key => $Value) {
$DepthArray[]=ArrayDepth($Value,$DepthCount);
}
else
return $DepthCount;
return max($DepthCount,max($DepthArray));
}

A modernized version of the flatten_array() functies written by
davidj at boundlessgallery dot DISLIKESPAM dot com
on 02-Apr-2004 03:10
This function is able to work with associative arrays
<?php
function flatten_array($array) {
$size=sizeof($array);
$keys=array_keys
