Rotate the last value of an array to be the first element without rotating keys

How would you go about rotating the values of an array in php? For example:

array ('bill'=>'bob','marley'=>'mary','jake'=>'jack');

so that it rotates the value and keeps the key so it'll become,

array ('bill'=>'jack','marley'=>'bob','jake'=>'mary');
Solution

  • Read the comment at every line for detail

    $a = array ('bill'=>'bob','marley'=>'mary','jake'=>'jack');
$key = array_keys($a);// get all the keys of array
$value = array_values($a);// get all the value of array
$rev = array_reverse($value);// reverse your value
$new_array = array_combine($key, $rev);// combine array wirh key and reverse value
 print_r($new_array);

    OUTPUT

    Array ( [bill] => jack [marley] => mary [jake] => bob )
