PHP's array_map including keys

Question

Is there a way of doing something like this:

$test_array = array(\"first_key\" => \"first_value\", 
                    \"second_key\" => \"second_valu         


        

Answer 1

This is probably the shortest and easiest to reason about:

$states = array('az' => 'Arizona', 'al' => 'Alabama');

array_map(function ($short, $long) {
    return array(
        'short' => $short,
        'long'  => $long
    );
}, array_keys($states), $states);

// produces:
array(
     array('short' => 'az', 'long' => 'Arizona'), 
     array('short' => 'al', 'long' => 'Alabama')
)
