PHP - Mutidimensional array diff

Question

i would like to ask for your help since I\'m having difficulty resolving this matter. I had created a function to facilitate on array diff but it does not suffice to my need

Answer 1

You want something more or less like this:

public function array_diff_multidimensional($arr1, $arr2) {
    $answer = array();
    foreach($arr1 as $k1 => $v1) {
        // is the key present in the second array?
        if (!array_key_exists($k1, $arr2)) {
           $answer[$k1] = $v1; 
           continue;
        }

        // PHP makes all arrays into string "Array", so if both items
        // are arrays, recursively test them before the string check
        if (is_array($v1) && is_array($arr2[$k1])) {
            $answer[$k1] = array_diff_multidimensional($v1, $arr2[$k1]);
            continue;
        }

        // do the array_diff string check
        if ((string)$arr1[$k1] === (string)$arr2[$k1]) {
            continue;
        }

        // since both values are not arrays, and they don't match,
        // simply add the $arr1 value to match the behavior of array_diff
        // in the PHP core
        $answer[$k1] = $v1;
    }

    // done!
    return $answer;
}
