I have the following PHP array
JavaScript
x
[1] => Array
(
[0] => 9780881220766
[1] => 0881220760
)
[2] => Array
(
[0] => 9780141374284
[1] => 0141374284
)
[3] => Array
(
[0] => 057305133X
[1] => 9780573051333
))
I would like the output to be as follows:
JavaScript
[0] => 9780881220766
[1] => 0881220760
[2] => 9780141374284
[3] => 0141374284
[4] => 057305133X
[5] => 9780573051333
I tried using array_values
but I’m not getting any output.
I also tried to extract the values using a foreach loop:
JavaScript
foreach ($rawIsbns as $isbnKey => $isbnValue){
$formattedIsbns[] = $isbnValue;
}
However, I’m not managing.

I managed to solve the problem by initializing an array and adding values of subsequent nested arrays using array_push
JavaScript
function isbns($rawIsbns) {
$prevArrayValues = null;
foreach ($rawIsbns as $value) {
if (!isset($prevArrayValues)) {
$prevArrayValues = []; //initiallise first value unless initialized
}
if (empty($value)) {
$return = []; //disregard empty values
} else {
$return = $value; // add arrays to existing array
}
$prevArrayValues = array_merge($prevArrayValues, $return);
}
return $prevArrayValues;
}
