Merge two flat arrays into a new flat array with no empty values

I have two input arrays.

$cad_cons => ['', '200', '500', ''];

$man_cons => ['228.44', '', '', '320.04'];

I need to merge them like this:

$cons = ['228.44', '200', '500', '320.04'];

Are there any PHP functions for this operation?

Solution

  • All you need is a combination of array_filter() and array_merge(). 

    $a = ['', '200', '500', ''];
$b = ['228.44', '', '', '320.04'];

$a = array_filter($a); 
$b = array_filter($b);

print_r(array_merge($a, $b));

    The above will give you. 

    Array
(
    [0] => 200
    [1] => 500
    [2] => 228.44
    [3] => 320.04
)
