[SOLVED] Simple array question

[therealwesfoster]

You know how you can do this to add another key to the end of an array?

<?php
$ar = array();

$ar[] = "First entry";
$ar[] = "Second entry";

?>

 

Well, how would you do it for an array like below:

<?php
$ar = array("First" => "1st", "Second" => "2nd");

$ar[] = "Third" => "3rd";
?>

 

I know the way I did it was completely wrong, but hopefully you get what I'm trying to do.

 

I would look through google for the answer, but I don't know what you would call that. In-line array pushing? lol

 

thanks

$arr['Third'] = "3rd";

Thanks for the reply and the weird face.

 

I tried that though, and it doesn't work.

 

What I did:

<?php
$template['assign']["PIC0"] = $val;

$template['assign'] = array(
"VAL2"	=> $val2,
);
?>

 

I think the second declaration is overwriting the first. So how would I re-write the second array push?

$template['assign']["PIC0"] = $val;

$template ['assign']['VAL2'] = $val2;

 

Uhh, yeah. 

[therealwesfoster]

Enough with the sarcasm kid.

 

I don't want to go through and have:

$template['assign']['VAL3'] = $val3;

$template['assign']['VAL4'] = $val4;

$template['assign']['VAL5'] = $val5;

etc. etc. etc.

 

So how would I re-write the:

<?php
$template['assign'] = array(
"VAL2"	=> $val2,
"VAL3"	=> $val3
);
?>

etc.

 

In order to push them

I don't really understand what you mean?

 

you can always use a 2 dimensional or 3 dimensional array

I think none of us understand what he means.

How can I use something like array_push() for associative arrays?

 

And be able to push multiple associative arrays at once (in the same function)

[DarkWater]

Sarcasm?  Nah.  And appreciate it when people help you. Got it, kid?

 

$toadd = array("VAL2" => $val2, "U900" => $val3);

$arr = array("First" => "1st");

foreach ($toadd as $k=>$v) {

  $arr[$k] = $v;

}

[DarkWater]

function array_push_assoc(&$arr) {

  if (function_num_args() > 1) {

  $arrays = func_get_args();

  foreach ($arrays as $k=>$v) {

      if ($k==0){continue;}

      foreach ($v as $key=>$val) {

           $arr[$key] = $val;

      }

   }

  }

}

 

Gotta love knowing how to make variable parameter lists.  And if you're a jerk again, or you're so arrogant as to call me a kid, expect no help.

      }

  }

  }

That'll work man. Much appreciated.

 

And as for the comment, you'll learn in life that some things just aren't worth dwelling on.

 

Thanks again

Glad I could help.
