I am struggling with what would appear to be a pretty straight forward task. I have looked at and tried all kinds of functions and suggestion on SO hoping that maybe there is something simple and functional out there. Nothing I tried gives me the logic to do the restructuring.
I have a long complex array. However very much simplified the logic problem I am trying to solve generically is as follows:
$cost_type = Array
(
0 => "ISP2",
1 => "ISP3",
2 => "ISP4"
);
$supplier_name = Array
(
0 => "NAME-A",
1 => "NAME-B",
2 => "NAME-C"
);
$propertyid = Array
(
0 => "property1",
1 => "property2",
2 => "property2"
);
and I need to convert it to the following set of arrays (noting the concatenation of the two arrays with a common property id.....
$property1
(
array['charges']
[0] =>IPS2
array ['names']
[0] =>NAME-A
)
$property2
(
array['charges']
[0] ->IPS3
[1] =>IPS4
array['names']
[0] =>NAME-B
[1] =>NAME-c
)
I have tried everything over the course of the last few hours and a simple solution totally evades me.
If you can join the three arrays as you say in comments above this code will generate the look you want.
I loop through the array with property and keep key as the key to find names and charges in the other subarrays.
$cost_type = Array
(
0 => "ISP2",
1 => "ISP3",
2 => "ISP4"
);
$supplier_name =Array
(
0 => "NAME-A",
1 => "NAME-B",
2 => "NAME-C"
);
$propertyid = Array
(
0 => "property1",
1 => "property2",
2 => "property2"
);
$arr[] = $cost_type;
$arr[] = $supplier_name;
$arr[] = $propertyid;
$result = array();
Foreach($arr[2] as $key => $prop){
$result[$prop]["charges"][] =$arr[0][$key];
$result[$prop]["names"][] = $arr[1][$key];
}
Var_dump($result);
