I have two array and want to merge it by using key of main array;
// $result : main dataset (multidimensional array)
// $referenceData : data related with main dataset and want to merge it into main dataset (multidimensional array)
if ($result) {
foreach ($result as $key => $val) {
foreach ($referenceData[$val['id']] as $refKey => $refVal) {
$result[$key][$refKey] = $refVal;
}
}
}
The thing is, when the result is high (even for 1000 elements on each) it takes more than 5-10 seconds which is quite unexpected for me.
I tried to usearray_merge
andarray_merge_recursive
instead of two foreach but I kept failing. Is there any way I could improve the logic? Thanks in advance.
Edit (added sample array);
result :
array(1) {
[0]=>
array(6) {
["id"]=>
string(5) "13020"
["name"]=>
string(23) "Data Stream 1"
["rank"]=>
string(1) "3"
["data_1"]=>
string(2) "63"
["data_2"]=>
string(2) "256"
["data_3"]=>
string(3) "469"
}
}
referenceData:
array(1) {
[13020]=>
array(5) {
["percent"]=>
float(20.987654320988)
["count_min"]=>
string(1) "1"
["count_max"]=>
int(2)
["checked"]=>
bool(false)
["cond_id"]=>
string(1) "0"
}
}
You need to make the first array structure exactly like the second array so that you can easily merge them. To do so you can do like below : (Its a reference code, you need to change it at your end)
$rows = $db->table('<table name>')->get()->getResultArray();
$result = [];
foreach ($rows as $row) {
$result[$row['id']] = $row;
}
Once both arrays have a similar structure, then you can go for a singleforeach()
and+
operator to combine child arrays.
$finalArray = [];
foreach($result as $key=>$value){
$finalArray[$key] = $value+$referenceData[$key];
}
print_r($finalArray);

Note: if you want to re-index this new array (in case you want indexes like 0,1,2... so on) then you can do:
$finalArray = array_values($finalArray);
