Say I have the following two arrays:
$array = Array("Julie","Clive","Audrey","Tom","Jim","Ben","Dave","Paul");
$mandt = Array(1,0,0,1,0,0,1,1);
The numbers signify whether the names are valid or not. 1 is valid 0 is not. I need to check through the names and echo their name and then "true" if the name is valid and "false" if it is not, i.e:
Julie: True
Clive: False
Audry: False
Etc...
Could anybody help me out please?
THanks.
So something like this foreach() loop?...
foreach($array as $key => $value){
echo $value.": ";
echo $mandt[$key] ? "True" : "False";
echo "<br />";
}
$values = array_combine($array, $mandt);
$values = array_map(function ($i) { return $i ? 'True' : 'False'; }, $values);
var_dump($values);
// or loop through them, or whatever
for($i=0, $count=count($array); $i<$count; $i++){
echo $array[$i] . ": " . ($mandt[$i]? "True":"False") . "<br/>";
}
$cnt = count($array); then use in for loopWhy don't you just loop through the arrays?
$array = Array("Julie","Clive","Audrey","Tom","Jim","Ben","Dave","Paul");
$mandt = Array(1,0,0,1,0,0,1,1);
$c = count($array);
for ($i = 0; i < $c; i++) {
echo $array[$i] . ": " . (($mandt[$i] == 1)?"True":"False") . "\n";
}
Instead of looping and comparing the arrays, you could make a Hashtable-like array, like this:
$arr = array(
"Julie" => true,
"Clive" => false,
"Audrey" => false,
"Tom" => true
[...]
);
This way, you can just run something like that:
if ($arr["Julie"]) {
//Julie is a valid name!
} else {
//Julie is not a valid name!
}
This would be way more efficient than looping through the array.
