array_udiff_uassoc()

Example

Compare the keys and values of two arrays using two user-defined functions for comparison, and return the differences.

<?php
function myfunction_key($a,$b)
{
if ($a===$b)
  {
  return 0;
  }
  return ($a>$b)?1:-1;
}

function myfunction_value($a,$b)
{
if ($a===$b)
  {
  return 0;
  }
  return ($a>$b)?1:-1;
}

$a1=array(“a”=>“red”,“b”=>“green”,“c”=>“blue”);
$a2=array(“a”=>“red”,“b”=>“green”,“c”=>“green”);

$result=array_udiff_uassoc($a1,$a2,“myfunction_value”,“myfunction_key”);
print_r($result);
?>

Definition and Usage

The array_udiff_uassoc() function compares the keys and values of two or more arrays and returns the differences.

Note: It uses two user-defined functions for comparison—one for the keys and one for the values.

This function compares both the keys and values of arrays and returns an array containing entries from the first array that are not present in any of the other arrays.

Syntax

array_udiff_uassoc(array1, array2, array3, …, myfunc_key, myfunc_value)
