I needed a function similar to ian at fuzzygroove's array_interlace, but I need to pass more
than two arrays.
Here's my version, You can pass any number of arrays and it will interlace and key them
properly.
<?php
function array_interlace() {
$args = func_get_args();
$total = count($args);
if($total < 2) {
return FALSE;
}
$i = 0;
$j = 0;
$arr = array();
foreach($args as $arg) {
foreach($arg as $v) {
$arr[$j] = $v;
$j += $total;
}
$i++;
$j = $i;
}
ksort($arr);
return array_values($arr);
}
?>
Example usage:
<?php
$a = array('a', 'b', 'c', 'd');
$b = array('e', 'f', 'g');
$c = array('h', 'i', 'j');
$d = array('k', 'l', 'm', 'n', 'o');
print_r(array_interlace($a, $b, $c, $d));
?>
result:
Array
(
[0] => a
[1] => e
[2] => h
[3] => k
[4] => b
[5] => f
[6] => i
[7] => l
[8] => c
[9] => g
[10] => j
[11] => m
[12] => d
[13] => n
[14] => o
)
Let me know if you improve on it.
