How to append one array to another without comparing their keys?
$a = array( 'a', 'b' ); $b = array( 'c', 'd' );
At the end it should be: Array( [0]=>a [1]=>b [2]=>c [3]=>d )
If I use something like []
or array_push
, it will cause one of these results:
Array( [0]=>a [1]=>b [2]=>Array( [0]=>c [1]=>d ) ) //or Array( [0]=>c [1]=>d )
It just should be something, doing this, but in a more elegant way:
foreach ( $b AS $var ) $a[] = $var;

Answer
array_merge
is the elegant way:
$a = array('a', 'b'); $b = array('c', 'd'); $merge = array_merge($a, $b); // $merge is now equals to array('a','b','c','d');
Doing something like:
$merge = $a + $b; // $merge now equals array('a','b')
Will not work, because the +
operator does not actually merge them. If they $a
has the same keys as $b
, it won’t do anything.
