note 80571 added to function.array-map

This function behaves exactly like array_map but additionally does not reject non-array arguments. Instead, it transforms them with the array_fill function to a constant valued array of required length according to the other array arguments (if any) and executes the original array_map function. <?php function array_map2() { $args = func_get_args(); $callback = array_shift($args); $args = array_map( create_function('$a,$max','return is_array($a)? $a: array_fill(0,$max,$a);'), $args,array_fill(0,count($args),array_reduce($args, create_function('$v,$w','return max($v,is_array($w)? count($w): 1);')))); array_unshift($args,$callback); return call_user_func_array("array_map",$args); } ?> Example: <?php $get = "first=value1&second=value2&third=value3"; print_r(array_map2("explode","=",explode("&",$get))); ?> would print out: <?php Array ( [0] => Array ( [0] => first [1] => value1 ) [1] => Array ( [0] => second [1] => value2 ) [2] => Array ( [0] => third [1] => value3 ) ) ?> /pmf ---- Server IP: 217.160.72.57 Probable Submitter: 80.171.45.65 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-map.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/80571 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80571/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80571/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80571/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80571/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80571/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80571/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/80571 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/80571 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
