I have this:
$Array1 = "FirstName, LastName, Email";
$Array2 = "John, Doe, [email protected]";
Using a foreach or other means, Could the final array format to look like this?
$mergedArrays = array(
'FirstName' =>"John",
'LastName' => "Doe",
'Email' =>'[email protected]',
);
print_r($mergedArrays);
If you are sure that both array will contain the same number separeted by comma, use this:
Version 1 (testing with 100000 takes ~0.08s, +-4x faster)
<?php
$Array1 = "FirstName, LastName, Email";
$Array2 = "John, Doe, [email protected]";
$Array1 = explode(',', preg_replace('/\s*,\s*/',',',$Array1)); //remove spaces before and after comma
$Array2 = explode(',', preg_replace('/\s*,\s*/',',',$Array2));
if(count($Array1) == count($Array2)) {
$result = array_combine($Array1, $Array2);
}
print_r($result);
Output:
Array (
[FirstName] => John
[LastName] => Doe
[Email] => [email protected]
)
Alternative version from @castis (testing with 100000 takes ~0.3s)
$Array1 = explode(',',$Array1);
$Array2 = explode(',',$Array2);
$result = array_combine(array_map('trim', $Array1), array_map('trim', $Array2));
explode(', ',$Array1);
array_combine(array_map(trim, $Array1), array_map(trim, $Array2)); but +1 overall
If you must use a foreach (where array_combine would do):
<?php
$fields = ['FirstName', 'LastName', 'Email'];
$values = ['John', 'Doe', '[email protected]'];
foreach($fields as $k => $field)
$result[$field] = $values[$k];
var_export($result);
Output:
array (
'FirstName' => 'John',
'LastName' => 'Doe',
'Email' => '[email protected]',
)
$Array1 and $Array2 would be better labeled $csv1 and $csv2.
str_getcsv could help here.str_getcsv() here if it allowed two-character delimiters. A bit disappointing that my downvote on the question was neutralized, this undermines my fair action. (No research, no attempt, bad variable naming impacts question clarity.)
print_r(array_combine(explode(', ',$Array1),explode(', ',$Array2)));
