array_map
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.6, PHP 5)
array_map — Applies the callback to the elements of the given arrays
Description
array_map() returns an array containing all
the elements of array1 after applying the
callback function to each one.
The number of parameters that the callback
function accepts
should match the number of arrays
passed to the array_map()
Parameters
-
callback -
Callback function to run for each element in each array.
-
array1 -
An array to run through the
callbackfunction. -
... -
Variable list of array arguments to run through the
callbackfunction.
Return Values
Returns an array containing all the elements of array1
after applying the callback function to each one.
Examples
Example #1 array_map() example
<?php
function cube($n)
{
return($n * $n * $n);
}
$a = array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
$b = array_map("cube", $a);
print_r($b);
?>
This makes $b have:
Array
(
[0] => 1
[1] => 8
[2] => 27
[3] => 64
[4] => 125
)
Example #2 array_map() using a lambda function (as of PHP 5.3.0)
<?php
$func = function($value) {
return $value * 2;
};
print_r(array_map($func, range(1, 5)));
?>
Array
(
[0] => 2
[1] => 4
[2] => 6
[3] => 8
[4] => 10
)
Example #3 array_map() - using more arrays
<?php
function show_Spanish($n, $m)
{
return("The number $n is called $m in Spanish");
}
function map_Spanish($n, $m)
{
return(array($n => $m));
}
$a = array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
$b = array("uno", "dos", "tres", "cuatro", "cinco");
$c = array_map("show_Spanish", $a, $b);
print_r($c);
$d = array_map("map_Spanish", $a , $b);
print_r($d);
?>
The above example will output:
// printout of $c
Array
(
[0] => The number 1 is called uno in Spanish
[1] => The number 2 is called dos in Spanish
[2] => The number 3 is called tres in Spanish
[3] => The number 4 is called cuatro in Spanish
[4] => The number 5 is called cinco in Spanish
)
// printout of $d
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[1] => uno
)
[1] => Array
(
[2] => dos
)
[2] => Array
(
[3] => tres
)
[3] => Array
(
[4] => cuatro
)
[4] => Array
(
[5] => cinco
)
)
Usually when using two or more arrays, they should be of equal length because the callback function is applied in parallel to the corresponding elements. If the arrays are of unequal length, shorter ones will be extended with empty elements to match the length of the longest.
An interesting use of this function is to construct an array of arrays,
which can be easily performed by using NULL
as the name of the callback function
Example #4 Creating an array of arrays
<?php
$a = array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
$b = array("one", "two", "three", "four", "five");
$c = array("uno", "dos", "tres", "cuatro", "cinco");
$d = array_map(null, $a, $b, $c);
print_r($d);
?>
The above example will output:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[0] => 1
[1] => one
[2] => uno
)
[1] => Array
(
[0] => 2
[1] => two
[2] => dos
)
[2] => Array
(
[0] => 3
[1] => three
[2] => tres
)
[3] => Array
(
[0] => 4
[1] => four
[2] => cuatro
)
[4] => Array
(
[0] => 5
[1] => five
[2] => cinco
)
)
If the array argument contains string keys then the returned array will contain string keys if and only if exactly one array is passed. If more than one argument is passed then the returned array always has integer keys.
Example #5 array_map() - with string keys
<?php
$arr = array("stringkey" => "value");
function cb1($a) {
return array ($a);
}
function cb2($a, $b) {
return array ($a, $b);
}
var_dump(array_map("cb1", $arr));
var_dump(array_map("cb2", $arr, $arr));
var_dump(array_map(null, $arr));
var_dump(array_map(null, $arr, $arr));
?>
The above example will output:
array(1) {
["stringkey"]=>
array(1) {
[0]=>
string(5) "value"
}
}
array(1) {
[0]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(5) "value"
[1]=>
string(5) "value"
}
}
array(1) {
["stringkey"]=>
string(5) "value"
}
array(1) {
[0]=>
array(2) {
[0]=>
string(5) "value"
[1]=>
string(5) "value"
}
}

If you want to pass an argument like ENT_QUOTES to htmlentities, you can do the follow.
<?php
$array = array_map( 'htmlentities' , $array, array_fill(0 , count($array) , ENT_QUOTES) );
?>
The third argument creates an equal sized array of $array filled with the parameter you want to give with your callback function.
To transpose rectangular two-dimension array, use the following code:
array_unshift($array, null);
$array = call_user_func_array("array_map", $array);
If you need to rotate rectangular two-dimension array on 90 degree, add the following line before or after (depending on the rotation direction you need) the code above:
$array = array_reverse($array);
Here is example:
<?php
$a = array(
array(1, 2, 3),
array(4, 5, 6));
array_unshift($a, null);
$a = call_user_func_array("array_map", $a);
print_r($a);
?>
Output:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[0] => 1
[1] => 4
)
[1] => Array
(
[0] => 2
[1] => 5
)
[2] => Array
(
[0] => 3
[1] => 6
)
)
The most memory-efficient array_map_recursive().
<?php
function array_map_recursive(callable $func, array $arr) {
array_walk_recursive($arr, function(&$v) use ($func) {
$v = $func($v);
});
return $arr;
}
?>
Let's assume we have following situation:
<?php
class MyFilterClass {
public function filter(array $arr) {
return array_map(function($value) {
return $this->privateFilterMethod($value);
});
}
private function privateFilterMethod($value) {
if (is_numeric($value)) $value++;
else $value .= '.';
}
}
?>
This will work, because $this inside anonymous function (unlike for example javascript) is the instance of MyFilterClass inside which we called it.
I hope this would be useful for anyone.
You may be looking for a method to extract values of a multidimensional array on a conditional basis (i.e. a mixture between array_map and array_filter) other than a for/foreach loop. If so, you can take advantage of the fact that 1) the callback method on array_map returns null if no explicit return value is specified (as with everything else) and 2) array_filter with no arguments removes falsy values.
So for example, provided you have:
<?php
$data = [
[
"name" => "John",
"smoker" => false
],
[
"name" => "Mary",
"smoker" => true
],
[
"name" => "Peter",
"smoker" => false
],
[
"name" => "Tony",
"smoker" => true
]
];
?>
You can extract the names of all the non-smokers with the following one-liner:
<?php
$names = array_filter(array_map(function($n) { if(!$n['smoker']) return $n['name']; }, $data));
?>
It's not necessarily better than a for/foreach loop, but the occasional one-liner for trivial tasks can help keep your code cleaner.
/**
* Function which recursively applies a callback to all values and also its
* keys, and returns the resulting array copy with the updated keys and
* values.
* PHP's built-in function array_walk_recursive() only applies the passed
* callback to the array values, not the keys, so this function simply applies
* the callback to the keys too (hence the need of working with a copy,
* as also updating the keys would lead to reference loss of the original
* array). I needed something like this, hence my idea of sharing it here.
*
* @param callable $func callback which takes one parameter (value
* or key to be updated) and returns its
* updated value
*
* @param array $arr array of which keys and values shall be
* get updated
*/
function array_map_recursive(
callable $func,
array $arr
) {
// Initiate copied array which will hold all updated keys + values
$result = [];
// Iterate through the key-value pairs of the array
foreach ( $arr as $key => $value ) {
// Apply the callback to the key to create the updated key value
$updated_key = $func( $key );
// If the iterated value is not an array, that means we have reached the
// deepest array level for the iterated key, so in that case, assign
// the updated value to the updated key value in the final output array
if ( ! is_array( $value ) ) {
$result[$updated_key] = $func( $value );
} else {
// If the iterated value is an array, call the function recursively,
// By taking the currently iterated value as the $arr argument
$result[$updated_key] = array_map_recursive(
$func,
$arr[$key]
);
}
} // end of iteration through k-v pairs
// And at the very end, return the generated result set
return $result;
} // end of array_map_recursive() function definition
A general solution for the problem of wanting to know the keys in the callback, and/or retain the key association in the returned array:
<?php
/**
* Like array_map() but callback also gets passed the current key as the
* first argument like so:
* function($key, $val, ...$vals) { ... }
* ...and returned array always maintains key association, even if multiple
* array arguments are passed.
*/
function array_map_assoc(callable $callback, array $array, array ...$arrays) {
$keys = array_keys($array);
array_unshift($arrays, $keys, $array);
return array_combine($keys, array_map($callback, ...$arrays));
}
?>
Because it uses array_map() directly, it behaves the same way in regard to ignoring the keys of subsequent array arguments. It also has the same variadic signature.
If the callback function to be called is a static method from a different namespace, the fully qualified method including namespace must be specified (a use statement is not sufficient to resolve the namespace of the callback function)
<?php
use MyTools;
$arr = [1, 2, 3];
$arr = array_map('Tools::myHelper', $arr);
?>
will cause TypeError:
array_map() expects parameter 1 to be a valid callback, class 'Tools' not found.
Use the fully qualified name for the callback instead:
<?php
$arr = [1, 2, 3];
$arr = array_map('\MyTools\Tools::myHelper', $arr);
?>
