Merge all child values back into the parent multidimensional array php - php

Question

I have a multidimensional array and i need to merge all the child values back into its parent.
Say i have an array like this:
array(2) {
[XY] =>
array(3) {
[A]=> 20
[B]=> 30
[2]=>
array(2) {
[0]=> 1
[1]=> 2
}
}
[YZ] =>
array(3) {
[A]=> 60
[B]=> 50
[2]=>
array(2) {
[0]=> 3
[1]=> 4
}
}
}
and i want an output like this:
array(2) {
[XY] =>
array(4) {
[A]=> 20
[B]=> 30
[2]=> 1
[3]=> 2
}
[YZ] =>
array(4) {
[A]=> 60
[B]=> 50
[2]=> 3
[3]=> 4
}
}
How can I do this?

Answer 1

here is your solution its work recursive and give any child to meta parent (lvl 1 parent) note:end level Childs give to lvl 1 parent
function giveChildToParentLevel($array)
{
$countOfArray = count($array);
foreach($array as $key=>$value)
{
if(is_array($value))
{
$childitems = giveChildToParentLevel($value);
if(count($childitems) > 0 )
{
unset($array[$key]);
$i = 0;
foreach($childitems as $child)
{
if($i == 0)
$array[$key] = $child;
else
$array[$key.$i] = $child;
$i++;
}
}
}
}
return $array;
}
$array = //your array;
foreach($array as $key=>$value)
{
$array[$key] = giveChildToParentLevel($value);
}
print_r($array);

Answer 2

This code will merge the entire child array into its main parent array, similarly you can do for your requirements.
foreach($allDataInarray as $key => $data) {
$array_keys = array_keys($data);
foreach($array_keys as $key_value) {
if(is_array($data[$key_value])) {
foreach($data[$key_value] as $sub_key => $sub_data) {
$allDataInarray[$key][$sub_key] = $sub_data;
}
unset($allDataInarray[$key][$key_value]);
}
}
}
Note: this is for 2D array.
