array_diff_assoc (PHP 4 >= 4.3.0) array_diff_assoc -- Computes the difference of arrays with additional index check Descriptionarray array_diff_assoc ( array array1, array array2 [, array ...])
array_diff_assoc() returns an array
containing all the values from array1
that are not present in any of the other arguments.
Note that the keys are used in the comparison unlike
array_diff().
Beispiel 1. array_diff_assoc() example
<?php
$array1 = array("a" => "green", "b" => "brown", "c" => "blue", "red");
$array2 = array("a" => "green", "yellow", "red");
$result = array_diff_assoc($array1, $array2);
print_r($result);
?>
|
The result is:
| Array
(
[b] => brown
[c] => blue
[0] => red
) |
|
In our example above you see the "a" => "green"
pair is present in both arrays and thus it is not in the ouput from the
function. Unlike this, the pair 0 => "red"
is in the ouput because in the second argument "red"
has key which is 1.
Two values from key => value pairs are
considered equal only if (string) $elem1 === (string)
$elem2 . In other words a strict check takes place so
the string representations must be the same.
Anmerkung:
Please note that this function only checks one dimension of a n-dimensional
array. Of course you can check deeper dimensions by using, for example,
array_diff_assoc($array1[0], $array2[0]);.
