PHP 8.3.4 Released!

array_map

(PHP 4 >= 4.0.6, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

array_mapAplica la retrollamada a los elementos de los arrays dados

Descripción

array_map(callable $callback, array $array1, array $... = ?): array

array_map() devuelve un array que contiene todos los elementos de array1 después de haber aplicado la función callback a cada uno de ellos. El número de parámetros que la función callback acepta debería coincidir con el número de arrays proporcionados a array_map().

Parámetros

callback

Función de retrollamada a ejecutar para cada elemento de cada array.

array1

Un array a recorrer con la función callback.

...

Lista variable de argumentos de tipo array a recorrer con la función callback.

Valores devueltos

Devuelve un array que contiene todos los elementos de array1 después de aplicar la función callback a cada uno de ellos.

Ejemplos

Ejemplo #1 Ejemplo de array_map()

<?php
function cube($n)
{
return(
$n * $n * $n);
}

$a = array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
$b = array_map("cube", $a);
print_r($b);
?>

Este ejemplo hace que $b contenga:

Array
(
    [0] => 1
    [1] => 8
    [2] => 27
    [3] => 64
    [4] => 125
)

Ejemplo #2 array_map() usando una función lambda (desde PHP 5.3.0)

<?php
$func
= function($valor) {
return
$valor * 2;
};

print_r(array_map($func, range(1, 5)));
?>
Array
(
    [0] => 2
    [1] => 4
    [2] => 6
    [3] => 8
    [4] => 10
)

Ejemplo #3 array_map() - usando más arrays

<?php
function mostrar_en_español($n, $m)
{
return(
"El número $n se llama $m en español");
}

function
correspondencia_en_español($n, $m)
{
return(array(
$n => $m));
}

$a = array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
$b = array("uno", "dos", "tres", "cuatro", "cinco");

$c = array_map("mostrar_en_español", $a, $b);
print_r($c);

$d = array_map("correspondencia_en_español", $a , $b);
print_r($d);
?>

El resultado del ejemplo sería:

// salida de $c
Array
(
    [0] => El número 1 se llama uno en español
    [1] => El número 2 se llama dos en español
    [2] => El número 3 se llama tres en español
    [3] => El número 4 se llama cuatro en español
    [4] => El número 5 se llama cinco en español
)

// salida of $d
Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [1] => uno
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [2] => dos
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [3] => tres
        )

    [3] => Array
        (
            [4] => cuatro
        )

    [4] => Array
        (
            [5] => cinco
        )

)

Usualmente, cuando se usan dos o más arrays, estos deberían ser de la misma longitud, ya que la retrollamada se aplica en paralelo a los elementos correspondientes. Si los arrays son de longitudes diferentes, los más cortos se extenderán con elementos vacíos para que coincidan con la logintud del más largo.

Un uso interesante de esta función es la construcción de un array de arrays, lo que se puede llevar a cabo usando null como el nombre de la retrollamada.

Ejemplo #4 Crear un array de 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);
?>

El resultado del ejemplo sería:

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
        )

)

El array devuelto conservará las claves del argumento array si y solo si se pasa exactamente un array. Si se pasa más de un array, el array devuelto tendrá claves secuenciales de tipo integer.

Ejemplo #5 array_map() - con claves de tipo string

<?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));
?>

El resultado del ejemplo sería:

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"
  }
}

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.

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
)

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.

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);
?>

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.

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;
}
?>

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.

/**
* Function which recursively applies a callback to all values and also its

* PHP's built-in function array_walk_recursive() only applies the passed

} // end of iteration through k-v pairs

// And at the very end, return the generated result set
