Answer 1

class Person {
public $name = "pname";
public $age = "21";
public $gender = "MaleOrFemale";
function __construct($name,$age,$gender){
$this->name = $name;
$this->age = $age;
$this->gender = $gender;
}
}
you can use OOP methods and create an object to store the data of a person and create an array of persons
example
$steve = new Person("Steve Jobs","60","Male");
this'll create a person object $steve with name steve , age 60 , gender Male
you can create may person objects as you wish and put it on an array
$jeff = new Person("Jeff Bezos","50","Male");
$bill = new Person("Bill Gates","64","Male");
put all the above in an array as shown below
$persons = array($steve,$jeff,$bill);
try the below code self study and understand it i have used objects and constructor functions learn about them in w3schools.com
<?php
class Person {
public $name = "pname";
public $age = "21";
public $gender = "MaleOrFemale";
function __construct($name,$age,$gender){
$this->name = $name;
$this->age = $age;
$this->gender = $gender;
}
}
$steve = new Person("Steve Jobs","60","Male");
$jeff = new Person("Jeff Bezos","50","Male");
$bill = new Person("Bill Gates","64","Male");
$persons = array($steve,$jeff,$bill);
foreach($persons as $person){
echo"Person Name : ".$person->name."<br>";
echo"Person Age : ".$person->age."<br>";
echo"Person Gender : ".$person->gender."<br><br>";
}
?>

I think that the array_map solution provided by #ajay-kumar is the best,
I will propose a solution more dynamic and easer to read
function bindDatas(&$resultSolution, $inputData, $keyName)
{
foreach ($inputData as $key => $value) {
$resultSolution[$key][$keyName] = $value;
}
}
the test code some think like this:
//your code here
bindDatas($resultSolution, $arrayname, 'name');
bindDatas($resultSolution, $arrayage, 'age');
bindDatas($resultSolution, $arraygender, 'gender');
echo '<pre>';
print_r($resultSolution);
echo '</pre>';
it's true thar $key variable refer to position in the $inputData, but we an use it here because we want to keep the order in the global array

Answer 3

A simple loop will do here:
<?php
$names = ["john","mell","ben","henz","len"];
$ages = ["10","15","58","12","13"];
$genders = ["male","female","male","male","female"];
for($i=0, $c=count($names), $out=[]; $i<$c; $i++) {
$out[] = [
'name' => $names[$i],
'age' => $ages[$i],
'gender' => $genders[$i]
];
}
var_export($out);
Output:
array (
0 =>
array (
'name' => 'john',
'age' => '10',
'gender' => 'male',
),
1 =>
array (
'name' => 'mell',
'age' => '15',
'gender' => 'female',
),
2 =>
array (
'name' => 'ben',
'age' => '58',
'gender' => 'male',
),
3 =>
array (
'name' => 'henz',
'age' => '12',
'gender' => 'male',
),
4 =>
array (
'name' => 'len',
'age' => '13',
'gender' => 'female',
),
)
You could swap the for loop for a foreach:
foreach ($names as $k => $v) {
$out[] = [
'name' => $names[$k],
'age' => $ages[$k],
'gender' => $genders[$k]
];
}
