I am stuck somewhere in arrays. I am getting an array like:
Array
(
[0] => name
[1] => description
)
And I want to convert that into :
Array
(
"0" => name
"1" => description
)
I have found on google enough for this but did not found any solution, and don't think it is object array.
Can someone please help me out in this.
Thanks
Based on the duplicated answer, this is how you should do it
$data = array(0 =>'name', 1=> 'description');
$keys = array_keys($data);
$values = array_values($data);
$stringKeys = array_map('strval', $keys);
$data = array_combine($stringKeys, $values);
var_dump($data);
Output
array(2) {
[0]=> string(4) "name"
[1]=> string(11) "description"
}
There is a small syntax error there- array_map($keys, 'strval') should be array_map('strval', $keys)
BTW, I don't understand why you need this:
$data = array("name", "description");
echo $data[0]; // output: "name"
echo $data["0"]; // Also output: "name"
So in both cases you get the same output
You're misreading the output. The keys are not [0] and [1]; they are the integers 0 and 1, stylised for debug output.
You can have string keys instead if you like (i.e. ["0"] and ["1"] in the output), but since PHP will coerce between the two as needed anyway, there's really no point.
