Get only Numeric values from Array in PHP - php

Question

I have an array that looks something like this:
Array (
[0] => Array ( [country_percentage] => 5 %North America )
[1] => Array ( [country_percentage] => 0 %Latin America )
)
I want only numeric values from above array. I want my final array like this
Array (
[0] => Array ( [country_percentage] => 5)
[1] => Array ( [country_percentage] => 0)
)
How I achieve this using PHP?? Thanks in advance...

Answer 1

When the number is in first position you can int cast it like so:
$newArray = [];
foreach($array => $value) {
$newArray[] = (int)$value;
}

Answer 2

I guess you can loop the 2 dimensional array and use a preg_replace, i.e.:
for($i=0; $i < count($arrays); $i++){
$arrays[$i]['country_percentage'] = preg_replace( '/[^\d]/', '', $arrays[$i]['country_percentage'] );
}

Update Based on your comment:
for($i=0; $i < count($arrays); $i++){
if( preg_match( '/North America/', $arrays[$i]['country_percentage'] )){
echo preg_replace( '/[^\d]/', '', $arrays[$i]['country_percentage'] );
}
}

Answer 3

Try this:
$arr = array(array('country_percentage' => '5 %North America'),array("country_percentage"=>"0 %Latin America"));
$result = array();
foreach($arr as $array) {
$int = filter_var($array['country_percentage'], FILTER_SANITIZE_NUMBER_INT);
$result[] = array('country_percentage' => $int);
}

Answer 4

Try this one:-
$arr =[['country_percentage' => '5 %North America'],
['country_percentage' => '0 %Latin America']];
$res = [];
foreach ($arr as $key => $val) {
$res[]['country_percentage'] = (int)$val['country_percentage'];
}
echo '<pre>'; print_r($res);
output:-
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[country_percentage] => 5
)
[1] => Array
(
[country_percentage] => 0
)
)

Answer 5

You can use array_walk_recursive to do away with the loop,
passing the first parameter of the callback as a reference to modify the initial array value.
Then just apply either filter_var or intval as already mentioned the other answers.
$array = [
["country_percentage" => "5 %North America"],
["country_percentage" => "0 %Latin America"]
];
array_walk_recursive($array, function(&$value,$key){
$value = filter_var($value,FILTER_SANITIZE_NUMBER_INT);
// or
$value = intval($value);
});
print_r($array);
Will output
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[country_percentage] => 5
)
[1] => Array
(
[country_percentage] => 0
)
)

Answer 6

You could get all nemeric values by looping through the array. However I don't think this is the most efficient and good looking answer, I'll post it anyways.
// Array to hold just the numbers
$newArray = array();
// Loop through array
foreach ($array as $key => $value) {
// Check if the value is numeric
if (is_numeric($value)) {
$newArray[$key] = $value;
}
}
I missunderstood your question.
$newArray = array();
foreach ($array as $key => $value) {
foreach ($value as $subkey => $subvalue) {
$subvalue = trim(current(explode('%', $subvalue)));
$newArray[$key] = array($subkey => $subvalue);
}
}

Answer 7

If you want all but numeric values :
$array[] = array("country_percentage"=>"5 %North America");
$array[] = array("country_percentage"=>"3 %Latin America");
$newArray = [];
foreach ($array as $arr){
foreach($arr as $key1=>$arr1) {
$newArray[][$key1] = intval($arr1);
}
}
echo "<pre>";
print_R($newArray);

Answer 8

This is kind of a ghetto method to doing it cause I love using not as many pre made functions as possible. But this should work for you :D
$array = array('jack', 2, 5, 'gday!');
$new = array();
foreach ($array as $item) {
// IF Is numeric (each item from the array) will insert into new array called $new.
if (is_numeric($item)) { array_push($new, $item); }
}
