The array_add function adds a given key / value pair to the array if the given key doesn't already exist in the array.
$array = array('foo' => 'bar');
$array = array_add($array, 'key', 'value');
The array_divide function returns two arrays, one containing the keys, and the other containing the values of the original array.
$array = array('foo' => 'bar');
list($keys, $values) = array_divide($array);
The array_dot function flattens a multi-dimensional array into a single level array that uses "dot" notation to indicate depth.
$array = array('foo' => array('bar' => 'baz'));
$array = array_dot($array);
// array('foo.bar' => 'baz');
The array_except method removes the given key / value pairs from the array.
$array = array_except($array, array('keys', 'to', 'remove'));
The array_fetch method returns a flattened array containing the selected nested element.
$array = array(array('name' => 'Taylor'), array('name' => 'Dayle'));
var_dump(array_fetch($array, 'name'));
// array('Taylor', 'Dayle');
The array_first method returns the first element of an array passing a given truth test.
$array = array(100, 200, 300);
$value = array_first($array, function($key, $value)
{
return $value >= 150;
});
A default value may also be passed as the third parameter:
$value = array_first($array, $callback, $default);
The array_flatten method will flatten a multi-dimensional array into a single level.
$array = array('name' => 'Joe', 'languages' => array('PHP', 'Ruby'));
$array = array_flatten($array);
// array('Joe', 'PHP', 'Ruby');
The array_forget method will remove a given key / value pair from a deeply nested array using "dot" notation.
$array = array('names' => array('joe' => array('programmer')));
$array = array_forget($array, 'names.joe');
The array_get method will retrieve a given value from a deeply nested array using "dot" notation.
$array = array('names' => array('joe' => array('programmer')));
$value = array_get($array, 'names.joe');
The array_only method will return only the specified key / value pairs from the array.
$array = array('name' => 'Joe', 'age' => 27, 'votes' => 1);
$array = array_only($array, array('name', 'votes'));
The array_pluck method will pluck a list of the given key / value pairs from the array.
$array = array(array('name' => 'Taylor'), array('name' => 'Dayle'));
$array = array_pluck($array, 'name');
// array('Taylor', 'Dayle');
The array_pull method will return a given key / value pair from the array, as well as remove it.
$array = array('name' => 'Taylor', 'age' => 27);
$name = array_pull($array, 'name');
The array_set method will set a value within a deeply nested array using "dot" notation.
$array = array('names' => array('programmer' => 'Joe'));
array_set($array, 'names.editor', 'Taylor');
The array_sort method sorts the array by the results of the given Closure.
$array = array(
array('name' => 'Jill'),
array('name' => 'Barry'),
);
$array = array_values(array_sort($array, function($value)
{
return $value['name'];
}));
