Merge 2 Arrays to Make 1

[xProteuSx]

I have two arrays, as follows:

 

$array1 = (1, 2, 3);

$array2 = (4, 5, 6);

 

Is there a function to combine the two without having to do a loop?  I'd like to create:

 

$array3 = (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6);

Yup, surprisingly named array_merge

Surprisingly the documentation for this function is confusing to a newbie.

 

I have tried:

 

$array3 = array_merge($array1, $array2);

 

I have also tried:

 

$array1 = array_merge($array1, $array2);

 

Neither has worked.

<?php
$array1 = array(1, 2, 3);
$array2 = array(4, 5, 6);
$array3=array_merge($array1, $array2);
foreach ($array3 as $key => $value) {
echo"key = $key value = $value<br />\n"; 
}
?>

Hmmm ...

 

I guess that the following worked:

 

$array3 = array_merge($array1, $array2);

 

Wonder why I didn't catch that.  Thanks.
