Merge multiple associative arrays to a single array of associative arrays

Question

I have 4 associative arrays as per below:

$ids  = array(
      \'0\' => \'7\' ,
      \'1\' => \'8\' ,
      \'2\' => \'9\'
);
$names = array (
             


        

Answer 1

I believe this is your array

$ids = array('0' => '7','1' => '8','2' => '9');
$names = array('0' => 'Name 1','1' => 'Name 2','2' => 'another name');
$marks = array('0' => '8','1' => '5','2' => '8');
$grade = array('0' => '4','1' => '2.5','2' => '4');

#New Keys
$keys = array("id","name","marks","grade");

A. You can use MultipleIterator

$final = array();
$mi = new MultipleIterator();
$mi->attachIterator(new ArrayIterator($ids));
$mi->attachIterator(new ArrayIterator($names));
$mi->attachIterator(new ArrayIterator($marks));
$mi->attachIterator(new ArrayIterator($grade));

foreach ( $mi as $value ) {
    $final[] = array_combine($keys, $value);
}
var_dump($final);

B. You can use array_map

$final = array();
foreach ( array_map(null, $ids, $names, $marks, $grade) as $key => $value ) {
    $final[] = array_combine($keys, $value);
}
var_dump($final);

Output

array
  0 => 
    array
      'id' => string '7' (length=1)
      'name' => string 'Name 1' (length=6)
      'marks' => string '8' (length=1)
      'grade' => string '4' (length=1)
  1 => 
    array
      'id' => string '8' (length=1)
      'name' => string 'Name 2' (length=6)
      'marks' => string '5' (length=1)
      'grade' => string '2.5' (length=3)
  2 => 
    array
      'id' => string '9' (length=1)
      'name' => string 'another name' (length=12)
      'marks' => string '8' (length=1)
      'grade' => string '4' (length=1)
