PHP add array to array code example

Example 1: php append to array

$myArr = [1, 2, 3, 4];

array_push($myArr, 5, 8);
print_r($myArr); // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8]

$myArr[] = -1;
print_r($myArr); // [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, -1]

Example 2: php array_merge

<?php
$array1 = array("color" => "red", 2, 4);
$array2 = array("a", "b", "color" => "green", "shape" => "trapezoid", 4);
$result = array_merge($array1, $array2);
print_r($result);
?>
Array
(
    [color] => green
    [0] => 2
    [1] => 4
    [2] => a
    [3] => b
    [shape] => trapezoid
    [4] => 4
)

Example 3: php merge 2 arrays

<?php
  $array1 = [
      "color" => "green"
  ];
  $array2 = [
      "color" => "red", 
      "color" => "blue"
  ];
  $result = array_merge($array1, $array2);

]

Example 4: array_push php

<?php
$cesta = array("laranja", "morango");
array_push($cesta, "melancia", "batata");

?>

Example 5: php add to array

$fruits = ["apple", "banana"];
// array_push() function inserts one or more elements to the end of an array
array_push($fruits, "orange");

// If you use array_push() to add one element to the array, it's better to use
// $fruits[] = because in that way there is no overhead of calling a function.
$fruits[] = "orange";

// output: Array ( [0] => apple [1] => banana [2] => orange )

Example 6: php add item to array

<?php
  $z = ['me','you', 'he'];
  array_push($z, 'she', 'it');
  print_r($z);
?>
