I want to combine data only if value is exist. example:
// array 1
array:4 [▼
0 => "qwfd"
1 => "qw2e3"
2 => null
3 => null
]
// array 2
array:4 [▼
0 => "qwef"
1 => "w2"
2 => null
3 => null
]
I need to ignore 2=>
and 3=>
in both arrays as they are null.
Ps
Even if one of them is null also needs to be ignored (example)
// array 1
array:4 [▼
0 => "qwfd"
1 => "qw2e3"
2 => "i am here"
3 => null
]
// array 2
array:4 [▼
0 => "qwef"
1 => "w2"
2 => null
3 => null
]
In this case array 1
, 2=>
has value but because array 2
, 2=>
doesn't. It shouldn't be combined either.
My code
$names = $request->input('social_media_name'); // array 1
$usernames = $request->input('social_media_username'); // array 2
$newArray = array_combine($names, $usernames);
Any idea?
It is pretty straightforward. Loop and check if values at indexes are null. If either of them are, skip it, else set the key and value pair.
<?php
$result = [];
foreach($names as $index => $val){
if (is_null($val) || is_null($usernames[ $index ]) continue;
$result[ $val ] = $usernames[ $index ];
}
print_r($result);
