Get keys from multidimensional array recursively

Question

I have multidimensional array like this. It is in var_dump() formatting.

array(1) {
  [4]=>
  array(1) {
    [2]=>
    array(1) {
      [5]=>
      arra         


        

Answer 1

I used a recursive function:

  array (
    2 =>
    array (
      5 =>
      array (
        1 =>
        array (
          3 =>
          array (
            6 =>
            array (
            )
          )
        )
      )
    )
  )
);


$keysArray = array();
$depth = 0;

function newArray($array, &$keysArray) {

     foreach ($array as $key => $value) {
        $depth++;
        array_push($keysArray, $key);
        if( is_array($value) && $depth < 10 ) { newArray($value, $keysArray ); }

     }

}

newArray($multiArray, $keysArray);
print_r( $keysArray ); // Your expected result
// $keysArray = Array ( [0] => 4 [1] => 2 [2] => 5 [3] => 1 [4] => 3 [5] => 6 )

?>

I used the variable $depth to prevent going loop crazy
