Re-understand the php array_merge function
Today I re-examined the array_merge() function due to a bug.
Definition: array_merge — merge one or more arrays
Specification: array array_merge(array $array1 [, array $...])
Description:
1. Combine the cells of one or more arrays, and the values in one array are appended to the end of the previous array.
2. If the input array has the same string key name, the value after the key name will overwrite the previous value. However, if the array contains numeric keys, the subsequent values will not overwrite the original values, but will be appended to them.
3. If only an array is given and the array is numerically indexed, the key names will be re-indexed in a continuous manner.
This function has detailed examples in the manual and is also very versatile and practical.
A problem I encountered today was a warning in the manual, but I didn't notice it before, which resulted in a fatal error. As follows:
PHP >= Version 5.0, array_merge() only accepts array type parameters. However, you can use casts to combine other types.
Pay attention to the array variables generated by foreach and other codes. Either initialize the variable to an empty array, or perform a forced conversion during merging. Otherwise, you will suffer a lot. Therefore, it is also a good idea to maintain a habit of initializing variables.
There are two cases of merging arrays in PHP
1. If the two arrays have the same string key name:
<?php
$book1 = array('linux'=>'linux服务器配置与管理','php'=>'PHP程序设计');
$book2 = array('linux'=>'服务器配置与管理','jsp'=>'PHP');
$result = array_merge($book1,$book2);
print_r($result);
?>
The output is:
Array ( [linux] => 服务器配置与管理 [php] => PHP程序设计 [jsp] => PHP )
Note that the latter will replace the former. But if array_merge_recursive() is used, it can be retained and exist as a subarray. Such as:
<?php
$book1 = array('linux'=>'linux服务器配置与管理','php'=>'PHP程序设计');
$book2 = array('linux'=>'服务器配置与管理','jsp'=>'PHP');
$result = array_merge_recursive($book1,$book2);
print_r($result);
?>
The output is:
Array ( [linux] => Array ( [0] => linux服务器配置与管理 [1] => 服务器配置与管理 ) [php] => PHP程序设计 [jsp] => PHP )
2. If the two arrays have the same numerical key name:
<?php
$book1 = array('linux服务器配置与管理','PHP程序设计');
$book2 = array('服务器配置与管理','PHP');
$result = array_merge($book1,$book2);
print_r($result);
?>
The result is:
Array ( [0] => linux服务器配置与管理 [1] => PHP程序设计 [2] => 服务器配置与管理 [3] => PHP )
At this time, if the array contains the same numeric key name, the subsequent key values will not overwrite the previous values, but the subsequent key values will increase in order and be appended to the end. Do you understand? ^_^
1. The easiest way: use +
The following code:
$r1 = array('a'=>1,'b '=>3,'c'=>5,'d'=>7,'e'=>9);
$r2 = array('f'=>2,'g' =>4,'h'=>6,'i'=>8,'j'=>10);
$r = $r1+$r2;
echo '
';<br> print_r($r);<br> echo '';
?>
Code output result:
Array
(
[a] => 1
[b] => 3
[c] => 5
[d] => 7
[e] => 9
[f] => 2
[g] => 4
[h] => 6
[i] => 8
[j] => 10
)
But there is something to note about this method: only one element with the same two keywords will be retained, that is, $r1+r2, then the data in $r1 will be retained. This may also be used in special occasions. Maybe.
2. Use array_merge() function:
$array1 = array("color" => "red", 2, 4);
$array2 = array("a", "b", "color" => "green", "shape" => "trapezoid", 4);
$result = array_merge($array1, $array2) ;
print_r($result);
?>
Code output result:
Array
(
[color] => green
[0] => 2
[1] => 4
[2] => a
[3] => b
[shape] => trapezoid
[4] => 4
)
This is a function call by address. $array is a variable. What is passed to test() is the address of $array. The function directly rewrites the content of $array and returns the value

Explain JSON Web Tokens (JWT) and their use case in PHP APIs.
Apr 05, 2025 am 12:04 AM
JWT is an open standard based on JSON, used to securely transmit information between parties, mainly for identity authentication and information exchange. 1. JWT consists of three parts: Header, Payload and Signature. 2. The working principle of JWT includes three steps: generating JWT, verifying JWT and parsing Payload. 3. When using JWT for authentication in PHP, JWT can be generated and verified, and user role and permission information can be included in advanced usage. 4. Common errors include signature verification failure, token expiration, and payload oversized. Debugging skills include using debugging tools and logging. 5. Performance optimization and best practices include using appropriate signature algorithms, setting validity periods reasonably,

Static binding (static::) implements late static binding (LSB) in PHP, allowing calling classes to be referenced in static contexts rather than defining classes. 1) The parsing process is performed at runtime, 2) Look up the call class in the inheritance relationship, 3) It may bring performance overhead.
