PHP - dynamically generated elements of an array()? -
1. array
i have functon returns array of arrays:
function show_array() { $myarray = array( array( 'foo' => 'bar', 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), array( 'foo' => 'bar2', 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), array( 'foo' => 'bar3', 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), array( 'foo' => 'bar4', 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), //i want add additional elements here using foreach ); return $myarray; } 2. elements add dynamically
as stated in comment above want add additional elements $myarray based on foreach loop, here's simple function returns nothing, shows want insert there:
$addtomyarray = array('one','two','three'); foreach($addtomyarray $newelement) { array( 'foo' => $newelement, 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb', ); } 3. desired result
so in end show_array() should return:
array( array( 'foo' => 'bar', 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), array( 'foo' => 'bar2', 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), array( 'foo' => 'bar3', 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), array( 'foo' => 'bar4', 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), //added stuff array( 'foo' => 'one, 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), array( 'foo' => 'two, 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), array( 'foo' => 'three, 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), ); i trying return new options $myarray[], array_push on them , array_merge, nothing seems work, unable place loops within $myarray array (what obvious). show_array() never returns generated elements.
how should done?
did mean similar this?
function show_array() { $myarray = array( array( 'foo' => 'bar', 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), array( 'foo' => 'bar2', 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), array( 'foo' => 'bar3', 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), array( 'foo' => 'bar4', 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb'), //i want add additional elements here using foreach ); $addtomyarray = array('one','two','three'); foreach($addtomyarray $newelement) { $myarray[] = array( 'foo' => $newelement, 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb', ); } return $myarray; } or one:
function compilearray($values) { myarray = array(); foreach($values $newelement) { $myarray[] = array( 'foo' => $newelement, 'bar' => 'foo', 'aaa' => 'bbb', ); } return $myarray; } $result = array_merge(show_array(),compilearray(array('one','two','three'))); or, adding further flexibility:
function createelementarray($value) { return array( 'foo'=>$value, 'bar'=>'foo', 'aaa'=>'bbb' ); } $result = array_merge( show_array(), array_map(createelementarray, array('one','two','three')) ); in order have code of single array encapsulated function interchangeable.
