I have array of objects like this:
Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object
(
[id_global_info] => 78
[name] => rfhd
[body] => dhfdhdf
[contact_author] => mirko
[date_created] => 2012-03-15 16:11:54
[date_expires] => 2012-04-14 16:11:54
[email] =>
[location_id] => 1
[category_id] => 26
[tag] => fhdhfdhfd
[info_type_id] => 4
[user_id] => 3
)
[1] => stdClass Object
(
[id_global_info] => 79
[name] => rfhd
[body] => dhfdhdf
[contact_author] => mirko
[date_created] => 2012-03-15 16:11:56
[date_expires] => 2012-04-14 16:11:56
[email] =>
[location_id] => 1
[category_id] => 26
[tag] => fhdhfdhfd
[info_type_id] => 4
[user_id] => 3
)
[2] => stdClass Object
(
[id_global_info] => 80
[name] => rfhd
[body] => dhfdhdf
[contact_author] => mirko
[date_created] => 2012-03-15 16:11:56
[date_expires] => 2012-04-14 16:11:56
[email] =>
[location_id] => 1
[category_id] => 26
[tag] => fhdhfdhfd
[info_type_id] => 4
[user_id] => 3
)
...
)
How can I search this multidimensional array and count number of results (for example, I want to search for info_type_id
with value of 4
)?
with foreach
?
function searchMyCoolArray($arrays, $key, $search) {
$count = 0;
foreach($arrays as $object) {
if(is_object($object)) {
$object = get_object_vars($object);
}
if(array_key_exists($key, $object) && $object[$key] == $search) $count++;
}
return $count;
}
echo searchMyCoolArray($input, 'info_type_id', 4);
