Array slice function that works with associative arrays (keys):
function array_slice_assoc($array,$keys) {
return array_intersect_key($array,array_flip($keys));
}
(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)
array_slice — 从数组中取出一段
$array,$offset,$length = null,$preserve_keys = false
array_slice() 返回根据 offset 和
length 参数所指定的 array
数组中的一段序列。
array输入的数组。
offset
如果 offset 非负，则序列将从 array
中的此偏移量开始。
如果 offset 为负，则序列将从
array 中距离末端这么远的地方开始。
注意:
参数
offset标识的是数组中的位置，而不是键。
length
如果给出了 length 并且为正，则序列中将具有这么多的单元。
如果 array 比 length 要短，只会保留有效的数组单元。
如果给出了
length 并且为负，则序列将终止在距离数组末端这么远的地方。
如果省略，则序列将从
offset 开始一直到 array 的末端。
preserve_keys注意:
注意 array_slice() 默认会重新排序并重置数组的数字索引。你可以通过将
preserve_keys设为true来改变此行为。 无论本参数如何设置，都会保留字符串的键。
返回其中一段。 如果 offset 参数大于 array 尺寸，就会返回空的 array。
示例 #1 array_slice() 例子
<?php
$input = array("a", "b", "c", "d", "e");
$output = array_slice($input, 2); // 返回 "c"， "d" 和 "e"
$output = array_slice($input, -2, 1); // 返回 "d"
$output = array_slice($input, 0, 3); // 返回 "a"， "b" 和 "c"
// 注意数组中 key 的不同
print_r(array_slice($input, 2, -1));
print_r(array_slice($input, 2, -1, true));
?>以上示例会输出：
Array
(
[0] => c
[1] => d
)
Array
(
[2] => c
[3] => d
)
示例 #2 array_slice() 于索引从 1 开始的 array
<?php
$input = array(1 => "a", "b", "c", "d", "e");
print_r(array_slice($input, 1, 2));
?>以上示例会输出：
Array
(
[0] => b
[1] => c
)
示例 #3 array_slice() 与混合类型键的 array
<?php
$ar = array('a'=>'apple', 'b'=>'banana', '42'=>'pear', 'd'=>'orange');
print_r(array_slice($ar, 0, 3));
print_r(array_slice($ar, 0, 3, true));
?>以上示例会输出：
Array
(
[a] => apple
[b] => banana
[0] => pear
)
Array
(
[a] => apple
[b] => banana
[42] => pear
)
Array slice function that works with associative arrays (keys):
function array_slice_assoc($array,$keys) {
return array_intersect_key($array,array_flip($keys));
}<?php
// CHOP $num ELEMENTS OFF THE FRONT OF AN ARRAY
// RETURN THE CHOP, SHORTENING THE SUBJECT ARRAY
function array_chop(&$arr, $num)
{
$ret = array_slice($arr, 0, $num);
$arr = array_slice($arr, $num);
return $ret;
}If you want an associative version of this you can do the following:
function array_slice_assoc($array,$keys) {
return array_intersect_key($array,array_flip($keys));
}
However, if you want an inverse associative version of this, just use array_diff_key instead of array_intersect_key.
function array_slice_assoc_inverse($array,$keys) {
return array_diff_key($array,array_flip($keys));
}
Example:
$arr = [
'name' => 'Nathan',
'age' => 20,
'height' => 6
];
array_slice_assoc($arr, ['name','age']);
will return
Array (
'name' = 'Nathan',
'age' = 20
)
Where as
array_slice_assoc_inverse($arr, ['name']);
will return
Array (
'age' = 20,
'height' = 6
)array_slice can be used to remove elements from an array but it's pretty simple to use a custom function.
One day array_remove() might become part of PHP and will likely be a reserved function name, hence the unobvious choice for this function's names.
<?
function arem($array,$value){
$holding=array();
foreach($array as $k => $v){
if($value!=$v){
$holding[$k]=$v;
}
}
return $holding;
}
function akrem($array,$key){
$holding=array();
foreach($array as $k => $v){
if($key!=$k){
$holding[$k]=$v;
}
}
return $holding;
}
$lunch = array('sandwich' => 'cheese', 'cookie'=>'oatmeal','drink' => 'tea','fruit' => 'apple');
echo '<pre>';
print_r($lunch);
$lunch=arem($lunch,'apple');
print_r($lunch);
$lunch=akrem($lunch,'sandwich');
print_r($lunch);
echo '</pre>';
?>
(remove 9's in email)remember that array_slice returns an array with the current element. you must use array_slice($array, $index+1) if you want to get the next elements.Using the varname function referenced from the array_search page, submitted by dcez at land dot ru. I created a multi-dimensional array splice function. It's usage is like so:
$array['admin'] = array('blah1', 'blah2');
$array['voice'] = array('blah3', 'blah4');
array_cut('blah4', $array);
...Would strip blah4 from the array, no matter where the position of it was in the array ^^ Returning this...
Array ( [admin] => Array ( [0] => blah1 [1] => blah2 ) [voice] => Array ( [0] => blah3 ) )
Here is the code...
<?php
function varname ($var)
{
// varname function by dcez at land dot ru
return (isset($var)) ? array_search($var, $GLOBALS) : false;
}
function array_cut($needle, $haystack)
{
foreach ($haystack as $k => $v)
{
for ($i=0; $i<count($v); $i++)
if ($v[$i] === $needle)
{
return array_splice($GLOBALS[varname($haystack)][$k], $i, 1);
break; break;
}
}
?>

?>Sometimes you need to pick certain non-integer and/or non-sequential keys out of an array. Consider using the array_pick() implementation below to pull specific keys, in a specific order, out of a source array:
<?php
$a = array ('a' => 1, 'b' => 2, 'c' => 3, 'd' => 4);
$b = array_pick($a, array ('d', 'b'));
// now:
// $a = array ('a' => 1, 'c' => '3');
// $b = array ('d' => 4, 'b' => '2');

{
if (! is_array($array)) {
trigger_error('First parameter must be an array', E_USER_ERROR);
return false;
}
if (! (is_array($keys) || is_scalar($keys))) {
trigger_error('Second parameter must be an array of keys or a scalar key', E_USER_ERROR);
return false;
}
if (is_array($keys)) {
// nothing to do
} else if (is_scalar($keys)) {
$keys = array ($keys);
}
$resultArray = array ();
foreach ($keys as $key) {
if (is_scalar($key)) {
if (array_key_exists($key, $array)) {
$resultArray[$key] = $array[$key];
unset($array[$key]);
}
} else {
trigger_error('Supplied key is not scalar', E_USER_ERROR);
return false;
}
}
return $resultArray;
}
?>Note that offset is not the same thing as key. Offset always starts at 0, while keys might be any number.
So this:
<?php print_r(array_slice(array(0 => 0, 5 => 5, 13 => 13),1)); ?>
will result in this:
Array
(
[0] => 5
[1] => 13
)just a little tip.
to preserve keys without providing length: use NULL
array_slice($array, $my_offset, NULL, true);I was trying to find a good way to find the previous several and next several results from an array created in a MySQL query. I found that most MySQL solutions to this problem were complex. Here is a simple function that returns the previous and next rows from the array.
<?php
/*
** function array_surround by Jamon Holmgren of ClearSight Design
** Version 1.0 - 4/10/2009
** Please direct comments and questions to my first name at symbol clearsightdesign.com
**
** Returns an array with only the $before and $after number of results
** This is set to work best with MySQL data results
** Use this to find the rows immediately before and after a particular row, as many as you want
**
** Example usage:
** $mysql_ar is an array of results from a MySQL query and the current id is $cur_id
** We want to get the row before this one and five rows afterward
**
** $near_rows = array_surround($mysql_ar, "id", $cur_id, 1, 5)
**
** Previous row is now $near_rows[-1]
** Current row is now $near_rows[0]
** Next row is $near_rows[1] ... etc
** If there is no previous row, $near_rows[-1] will not be set...test for it with is_array($near_rows[-1])
**
*/
function array_surround($src_array, $field, $value, $before = 1, $after = 1) {
if(is_array($src_array)) {
// reset all the keys to 0 through whatever in case they aren't sequential
$new_array = array_values($src_array);
// now loop through and find the key in array that matches the criteria in $field and $value
foreach($new_array as $k => $s) {
if($s[$field] == $value) {
// Found the one we wanted
$ck = $k; // put the key in the $ck (current key)
break;
}
}
if(isset($ck)) { // Found it!
$result_start = $ck - $before; // Set the start key
$result_length = $before + 1 + $after; // Set the number of keys to return
if($result_start < 0) { // Oops, start key is before first result
$result_length = $result_length + $result_start; // Reduce the number of keys to return
$result_start = 0; // Set the start key to the first result
}
$result_temp = array_slice($new_array, $result_start, $result_length); // Slice out the results we want
// Now we have an array, but we want array[-$before] to array[$after] not 0 to whatever.
foreach($result_temp as $rk => $rt) { // set all the keys to -$before to +$after
$result[$result_start - $ck + $rk] = $rt;

I hope you find this useful! I welcome constructive criticism or comments or of course praise ;) -- just e-mail me.
- Jamon HolmgrenIf you specify the fourth argument (to not reassign the keys), then there appears to be no way to get the function to return all values to the end of the array. Assigning -0 or NULL or just putting two commas in a row won't return any results.
