Show blank input array values in array while fetching data Laravel

Question

I have an input which is array

<input type="text" name="review_rate[]" value="{{$rinfo->review_rate}}" class="form-control text-center pay_review_scale_{{$cnts}}">

Now this input is not mandatory so when user doesnt add any value in first row and adds value in second row then it shows only 1 value in controller array

$review_rate= $request->review_rate;
echo "<pre>";
print_r($review_rate);exit; // this shows only second row value when first row value is blank

It shows values like this

Array
(
[0] => etgddddg
)

I want to show blank value also like below

Array
(
[0] => null
[1] => etgddddg
)

Any Suggestions?

There could be solution putting index into the name of input like this:

<input type="text" name="review_rate[0]" value="" class="form-control text-center pay_review_scale_{{$cnts}}">

<input type="text" name="review_rate[1]" value="{{$rinfo->review_rate}}" class="form-control text-center pay_review_scale_{{$cnts}}">

Then your key is saved so you can get array like

Array
(
[0] => null,
[1] => etgddddg
)

empty($review_rate[0]) //returns true
empty($review_rate[1]) //returns false

Then you can easily deduce that first one is empty.

I cant do this as new row will be added when clicked on button(using jquery)

So the problem is when someone create new input via button click, and wont fill this input, you cannot read it on backend right?
