Array slice function that works with associative arrays (keys):
function array_slice_assoc($array,$keys) {
return array_intersect_key($array,array_flip($keys));
}
array_slice
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
array_slice — 从数组中取出一段
说明
array array_slice
( array
$array
, int $offset
[, int $length = NULL
[, bool $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。
参数
-
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。 -
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 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。
返回值
返回其中一段。

范例
Example #1 array_slice() 例子
<?php
$input = array("a", "b", "c", "d", "e");
$output = array_slice($input, 2); // returns "c", "d", and "e"
$output = array_slice($input, -2, 1); // returns "d"
$output = array_slice($input, 0, 3); // returns "a", "b", and "c"
// note the differences in the array keys
print_r(array_slice($input, 2, -1));
print_r(array_slice($input, 2, -1, true));
?>
以上例程会输出：
Array
(
[0] => c
[1] => d
)
Array
(
[2] => c
[3] => d
)

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.

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>';
?>

This function may surprise you if you use arbitrary numeric values for keys, i.e.
<?php
//create an array
$ar = array('a'=>'apple', 'b'=>'banana', '42'=>'pear', 'd'=>'orange');
print_r($ar);
// print_r describes the array as:
// Array
// (
// [a] => apple
// [b] => banana
// [42] => pear
// [d] => orange
// )
//use array_slice() to extract the first three elements
$new_ar = array_slice($ar, 0, 3);
print_r($new_ar);
// print_r describes the new array as:
// Array
// (
// [a] => apple
// [b] => banana
// [0] => pear
// )
?>
The value 'pear' has had its key reassigned from '42' to '0'.
When $ar is initially created the string '42' is automatically type-converted by array() into an integer. array_slice() and array_splice() reassociate string keys from the passed array to their values in the returned array but numeric keys are reindexed starting with 0.

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;
}
}
?>

If you want to remove a specified entry from an array i made this mwethod...
<?php
$array = array("Entry1","entry2","entry3");
$int = 3; //Number of entries in the array
$int2 = 0; //Starter array spot... it will begine its search at 0.
$del_num = 1; //Represents the second entry in the array... which is the one we will happen to remove this time... i.e. 0 = first entry, 1 = second entry, 2 = third...........
$newarray = array(); //Empty array that will be the new array minus the specified entry...
print_r($array) . "<br>"; //print original array contents
print_r($newarray). "<br>"; //print the new empty array
do
{
$user = $array[$int2];
$key = array_search($user, $array);
if ($key == $del_num)
{
}
else
{
$newarray[] = $array[$int2];
}
$int2 = $int2 + 1;
} while ($int2 < $int);
print_r($newarray). "<br>"; //print the new array

just a little tip.
to preserve keys without providing length: use NULL
array_slice($array, $my_offset, NULL, true);

An implementation of array_slice that do not resets the cursor.
<?php
function get_from_array($arr, $start, $length)
{
$sliced = array();
foreach ($arr as $k => $v)
{
if ($start <= $k && $k <= $start + $length - 1)
{
$sliced[] = $v;
if (count($sliced) == $length) break;
}
}
return $sliced;
}
?>

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;
}
return $result;
} else { // didn't find it!
return false;
}
} else { // They didn't send an array
return false;
}
}
?>

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
)

I noticed that some other people made supportive functions for maintaining numeric keys for PHP versions less than 5.0.2. So here is my version of it.
<?php
//Slice an array but keep numeric keys
function narray_slice($array, $offset, $length) {
//Check if this version already supports it
if (str_replace('.', '', PHP_VERSION) >= 502)
return array_slice($array, $offset, $length, true);
foreach ($array as $key => $value) {
if ($a >= $offset && $a - $offset <= $length)
$output_array[$key] = $value;
$a++;
}
return $output_array;
}
?>

The version check on "ps at b1g dot de" function fails on my copy of PHP. My Version of PHP is "4.3.10-18", and it ends up checking 4310 <=> 502.
Since we are looking for a version over 4.1.0, we cas use version_compare.
<?php
// PHP >= 5.0.2 is able to do this itself
if(function_exists('version_compare') and version_compare(PHP_VERSION, '5.0.2') >= 0) {
return array_slice($array, $offset, $length, true);
}
?>

The following function is the same as array_slice with preserve_keys=true, but it works with PHP versions < 5.0.2.
When PHP >= 5.0.2 is available, the function uses the faster PHP-own array_slice-function with preserve_keys=true, otherwise it uses its own implementation.
<?php
/**
* array_slice with preserve_keys for every php version
*
* @param array $array Input array
* @param int $offset Start offset
* @param int $length Length
* @return array
*/
function array_slice_preserve_keys($array, $offset, $length = null)
{
// PHP >= 5.0.2 is able to do this itself
if((int)str_replace('.', '', phpversion()) >= 502)
return(array_slice($array, $offset, $length, true));
// prepare input variables
$result = array();
$i = 0;
if($offset < 0)
$offset = count($array) + $offset;
if($length > 0)
$endOffset = $offset + $length;
else if($length < 0)
$endOffset = count($array) + $length;
else
$endOffset = count($array);
// collect elements
foreach($array as $key=>$value)
{
if($i >= $offset && $i < $endOffset)
$result[$key] = $value;
$i++;
}
// return
return($result);
}
?>
Good for backwards compatibility I hope somebody might find this useful.

My shot at Dams's array_slice_key() implementation:
function array_slice_key($array, $offset, $len=-1){
if (!is_array($array))
return FALSE;
$length = $len >= 0? $len: count($array);
$keys = array_slice(array_keys($array), $offset, $length);
foreach($keys as $key) {
$return[$key] = $array[$key];
}
return $return;

foreach ($input_array as $key => $value)

if($key>=$filter_from && $key<=$filter_to)

}
elseif ($key>$filter_to)
{
//if the key is larger than what we want to filter
//it is useless to continue looping
break;
}
else
{
//if the key is smaller than what we expect
continue;
}
}
return $output_array;
}
// you can add more security defenses for the variables - e.g. if it is string or something like that

'gportlock at gembiz dot co dot uk' has an error in his limitText function. It simply takes a text string, then cuts off the first X words and returns the rest of the string. I believe the intended use is to return only the first X words and cut off the rest.
The correct version should be (notice the inserted 0 offset):
<?php
function limitText( $text, $wordCount )
{
$wordArray = explode(" ", $text);
array_splice($wordArray, 0, $wordCount);
return implode( " ", $wordArray );
}
?>

If 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.
Samuele at norsam dot org ¶

Note that if $offset+$length>count($array) then resulting array will NOT be filled with empty elements at his end, so it is not sure that it will have exactly $length elements. Example:
<?php
$a=Array(7,32,11,24,65); // count($a) is 5
$b=array_slice($a,2,4); // 2+4=6, and 6>count($a)
print_r($b);
?>
will return a 3-elements array:
Array
(
[0] => 11
[1] => 24
[2] => 65
)

I've found this useful.
The following is a function used to shuffle a very specific part of the array, by providing start and end index.
<?php
function array_shuffle_section(&$a, $s, $e) {
$head = array_slice($a, 0, $s);
$body = array_slice($a, $s, $e-$s+1);
$tail = array_slice($a, $e+1);
shuffle($body);
$a = array_merge($head,$body,$tail);
}
?>

It should be noted that this function does NOT modify the original array. So if you need to array_pop() or array_shift() without modifying the original array, you can use array_slice().
<?php
$input = array('a', 'b', 'c');
$output = array_slice($input, 1);
print_r($output);
print_r($input);
/*
Array
(
[0] => b
[1] => c
)
Array
(
[0] => a
[1] => b
[2] => c
)
*/
?>

I was trying to pass an argument list through the constructors. I tried various things such as func_get_args(). My conclusion is to pass the args to the constructor as an array. Each constructor can remove the fields it wants and pass the array on.
Using the following prototype, each child class can have any number of parameters added to the beginning of the class constructor and the rest passed onto the parent.
If the default value is desired for an argument, just pass NULL.
This could possibly be better done with array_shift or the like.
<?php
class aChild extends aParent
{
// TODO customise this list for this class
public
$a, $b, $c;
function __construct( $args = array() )
{
//set up default values for this class
// TODO customise this list for this class
$default = array( "a-def", "b-def", "c-def" ) ;
// now overwrite the default with non NULL args
foreach( $args as $key=>$val )
{
// more args than needed?
if( !isset( $default[$key] ) )
{
break;
}
// this arg not null
if( isset( $val ) )
{
$default[$key] = $val ;
}
}
// set this to the new values
// TODO customise this list for this class
list( $this->a, $this->b, $this->c ) = $default ;
// take off the ones we used
$args = array_slice( $args, count( $default ) ) ;
parent::__construct( $args ) ;
}
}
$x = new aChild( array( "aChild a", NULL, "aChild c", NULL, "aParent second", "aParent third" ) ) ;

[Editor's Note:
It is easier to do the same thing using array_values()
]
array_slice() can be used to "re-index" an array to start from key 0. For example, unpack creates an array with keys starting from 1;
<?php
var_dump(unpack("C*","AB"));
?>
produces
<?php
array(2) {
[1]=>
int(65)
[2]=>
int(66)
}
?>
and
<?php
var_dump(array_slice(unpack("C*","AB"),0));
?>
give you
<?php
array(2) {
[0]=>
int(65)
[1]=>
int(66)
}
?>

This function returns a text string that is limited by the word count. This funtion is particularly useful for paid advertising where you pay by the word.
function limitText( $text, $wordCount ){

For those with PHP < 5.0.2, and have a number as your array key, to avoid having the key reset with array_slice, add a blank character to the beginning or end of the key.
<?
$array[" ".$key] = $value;

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');
// $b = array ('d' => 4, 'b' => '2');
function &array_pick(&$array, $keys)
{
if (! is_array($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;
}

Here's a function which returns the array offset based on the array key. This is useful if you'd like to use array_slice to get all keys/values after key "foo".
<?
function array_offset($array, $offset_key) {
$offset = 0;
foreach($array as $key=>$val) {
if($key == $offset_key)
return $offset;
$offset++;
}
return -1;
}
$array = array('foo'=>'foo', 'bar'=>'bar', 'bash'=>'bash', 'quux'=>'quux');
print_r($array);
// Prints the following:
// Array
// (
// [foo] => foo
// [bar] => bar
// [bash] => bash
// [quux] => quux
// )
$offset = array_offset($array,'bar');
// $offset now contains '1'
$new = array_slice($array,$offset+1);
print_r($new);
// Prints the following:
// Array
// (
// [bash] => bash
// [quux] => quux
// )

By combining this with str_split() and implode(),slices can also be excerpted from strings with the following simple function:
<?php
function str_slice($string,$offset,$length=999,$preserve_keys=False){
if( $length == 999 ){ $length = strlen($string)-$offset };
$slice_arr = array_slice(str_split($string),$offset,$length,$preserve_keys);
return implode($slice_arr);
};
?>
Perhaps there's a better way to preset $length.

A flexible array_split function:
<?php
// split the given array into n number of pieces
function array_split($array, $pieces=2)
{
if ($pieces < 2)
return array($array);
$newCount = ceil(count($array)/$pieces);
$a = array_slice($array, 0, $newCount);
$b = array_split(array_slice($array, $newCount), $pieces-1);
return array_merge(array($a),$b);
}
// Examples:
$a = array(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10);
array_split($a, 2); // array(array(1,2,3,4,5), array(6,7,8,9,10))
array_split($a, 3); // array(array(1,2,3,4), array(5,6,7), array(8,9,10))
array_split($a, 4); // array(array(1,2,3), array(4,5,6), array(7,8), array(9,10))
?>

based on worldclimb's arem(), here is a recursive array value removal tool that can work with multidimensional arrays.
function remove_from_array($array,$value){
$clear = true;
$holding=array();
foreach($array as $k => $v){
if (is_array($v)) {
$holding [$k] = remove_from_array ($v, $value);
}
elseif ($value == $v) {
$clear = false;
}
elseif($value != $v){
$holding[$k]=$v; // removes an item by combing through the array in order and saving the good stuff
}
}
if ($clear) return $holding; // only pass back the holding array if we didn't find the value
}

In reply to jenny at jennys dot info:
Here is a much easier way to find the $offset of a $key in an $array:
$offset = array_search($key, array_keys($array));

Use unset() to delete a associative array.
Ex:
<?php
$item['chaise'] = array ('qty' => 1,
'desc' => 'Chaise bercante 10"',
'avail' => 10);
$item['divan'] = array ('qty' => 1,
'desc' => 'Divan brun laitte"',
'avail' => 10);
if (isset($item['chaise'])) {
++$item['chaise']['qty'];
}
unset($item['divan']);
foreach ($item as $s) {
echo "<br />Commande " . $s['qty'] . " " . $s['desc'];
}
?>
