[SOLVED] array copy

[pkedpker]

lol I know this is stupid question but here is what I want to do.. instead of making many arrays I want to access 1 array and get parts of it's elements in all the sub arrays for randomizing them..

 

so I got

 

$gs = array(1,4,7,10,13,16,19,21,23,27,29,32,37,41,43,46,48,50,52);

 

now I want

 

$ks[] = $gs[6, 12];

 

so it would copy from 6th index to 12th. and store the 6 elements in ks array.

 

but how do I do that without making a multi-dimensional array as i did. I seen array_slice but it cuts of the original array which is a not and i dont want to make clone of master array just to slice it.

array_slice does not overwrite the existing array, unless you assign the results of array_slice to the same array.

 

$gs = array(1,4,7,10,13,16,19,21,23,27,29,32,37,41,43,46,48,50,52);
$ks = array_slice($gs,5,6);
echo "<pre>";
print_r($gs);
print_r($ks);

 

output:

Array
(
    [0] => 1
    [1] => 4
    [2] => 7
    [3] => 10
    [4] => 13
    [5] => 16
    [6] => 19
    [7] => 21
    [8] => 23
    [9] => 27
    [10] => 29
    [11] => 32
    [12] => 37
    [13] => 41
    [14] => 43
    [15] => 46
    [16] => 48
    [17] => 50
    [18] => 52
)

    [0] => 16
    [1] => 19
    [2] => 21
    [3] => 23
    [4] => 27
    [5] => 29
)
