array_udiff
(PHP 5, PHP 7)
array_udiff — Computes the difference of arrays by using a callback function for data comparison
Description
Computes the difference of arrays by using a callback function for data comparison. This is unlike array_diff() which uses an internal function for comparing the data.
Parameters
-
array1 -
The first array.
-
array2 -
The second array.
-
value_compare_func -
The callback comparison function.
The comparison function must return an integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero if the first argument is considered to be respectively less than, equal to, or greater than the second. Note that before PHP 7.0.0 this integer had to be in the range from -2147483648 to 2147483647.
Return Values
Returns an array containing all the values of array1
that are not present in any of the other arguments.
Examples
Example #1 array_udiff() example using stdClass Objects
<?php
// Arrays to compare
$array1 = array(new stdclass, new stdclass,
new stdclass, new stdclass,
);
$array2 = array(
new stdclass, new stdclass,
);
// Set some properties for each object
$array1[0]->width = 11; $array1[0]->height = 3;
$array1[1]->width = 7; $array1[1]->height = 1;
$array1[2]->width = 2; $array1[2]->height = 9;
$array1[3]->width = 5; $array1[3]->height = 7;
$array2[0]->width = 7; $array2[0]->height = 5;
$array2[1]->width = 9; $array2[1]->height = 2;
function compare_by_area($a, $b) {
$areaA = $a->width * $a->height;
$areaB = $b->width * $b->height;
if ($areaA < $areaB) {
return -1;
} elseif ($areaA > $areaB) {
return 1;
} else {
return 0;
}
}
print_r(array_udiff($array1, $array2, 'compare_by_area'));
?>
The above example will output:
Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object
(
[width] => 11
[height] => 3
)
[1] => stdClass Object
(
[width] => 7
[height] => 1
)
)
Example #2 array_udiff() example using DateTime Objects
<?php
class MyCalendar {
public $free = array();
public $booked = array();
public function __construct($week = 'now') {
$start = new DateTime($week);
$start->modify('Monday this week midnight');
$end = clone $start;
$end->modify('Friday this week midnight');
$interval = new DateInterval('P1D');
foreach (new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $end) as $freeTime) {
$this->free[] = $freeTime;
}
}
public function bookAppointment(DateTime $date, $note) {
$this->booked[] = array('date' => $date->modify('midnight'), 'note' => $note);
}
public function checkAvailability() {
return array_udiff($this->free, $this->booked, array($this, 'customCompare'));
}
public function customCompare($free, $booked) {
if (is_array($free)) $a = $free['date'];
else $a = $free;
if (is_array($booked)) $b = $booked['date'];
else $b = $booked;
if ($a == $b) {
return 0;
} elseif ($a > $b) {
return 1;
} else {
return -1;
}
}
}
// Create a calendar for weekly appointments
$myCalendar = new MyCalendar;
// Book some appointments for this week
$myCalendar->bookAppointment(new DateTime('Monday this week'), "Cleaning GoogleGuy's apartment.");
$myCalendar->bookAppointment(new DateTime('Wednesday this week'), "Going on a snowboarding trip.");
$myCalendar->bookAppointment(new DateTime('Friday this week'), "Fixing buggy code.");
// Check availability of days by comparing $booked dates against $free dates
echo "I'm available on the following days this week...\n\n";
foreach ($myCalendar->checkAvailability() as $free) {
echo $free->format('l'), "\n";
}
echo "\n\n";
echo "I'm busy on the following days this week...\n\n";
foreach ($myCalendar->booked as $booked) {
echo $booked['date']->format('l'), ": ", $booked['note'], "\n";
}
?>
The above example will output:
I'm available on the following days this week... Tuesday Thursday I'm busy on the following days this week... Monday: Cleaning GoogleGuy's apartment. Wednesday: Going on a snowboarding trip. Friday: Fixing buggy code.
Notes
Note: Please note that this function only checks one dimension of a n-dimensional array. Of course you can check deeper dimensions by using array_udiff($array1[0], $array2[0], "data_compare_func");.
