array_unique wrongly discarding values - php

I'm trying to use array_unique to discard of repeated values.
Array

Where am I going with array_unique?

You can't use array_unique with nested arrays. The comparison used is clearly documented:
(string) $elem1 === (string) $elem2

PHP - Looping through indexed JSON array

I have parsed and looped through JSON plenty of times. I have seemed to hit a wall with something I have not done before and I have been unable to find an answer and hopefully I am referencing this correctly. I have been really struggling with this.
With the code example below I can parse it and assign a varible to an object and get its value like so.
$result = json_decode($json, true);
print_r($result);
echo $result['response'][0]['report']['type'];
This is where the problem comes in and it starts with the array index and I am hoping I am referring to this correctly. Basically it is the [0] from above. I have never looped through something like that before and my research has come up empty. Normally I would do it like this.
$json = '{"success":true,"error":null,"response":[{"id":"59c30487db6be86b7f8b465a","loc":{"long":-90.45,"lat":43.43},"report":{"code":"R","type":"heavy rain","name":"Gillingham","detail":{"text":1,"rainIN":1,"rainMM":25.4},"reporter":"co-op observer","comments":"","timestamp":1505952240,"cat":"rain","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T19:04:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T19:04:00-05:00","wfo":"arx"},"place":{"name":"gillingham","state":"wi","county":"richland","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c302a9db6be82a758b46e8","loc":{"long":-90.93,"lat":43.32},"report":{"code":"R","type":"heavy rain","name":"Mount Sterling","detail":{"text":2.25,"rainIN":2.25,"rainMM":57.15},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"","timestamp":1505951760,"cat":"rain","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:56:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:56:00-05:00","wfo":"arx"},"place":{"name":"mount sterling","state":"wi","county":"crawford","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c30106db6be8146c8b4661","loc":{"long":-89.53,"lat":44.45},"report":{"code":"R","type":"heavy rain","name":"Plover","detail":{"text":1.05,"rainIN":1.05,"rainMM":26.67},"reporter":"co-op observer","comments":"One hour total rainfall. also measured a 49 mph wind gust at 511 pm. no hail.","timestamp":1505950800,"cat":"rain","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:40:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:40:00-05:00","wfo":"grb"},"place":{"name":"plover","state":"wi","county":"portage","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c3080adb6be8d5138b4654","loc":{"long":-89.33,"lat":44.37},"report":{"code":"H","type":"hail","name":"4 mi NNW Blaine","detail":{"text":0.88,"hailIN":0.88,"hailMM":22.35},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"Nickel size hail and heavy rain. 3.25 to 3.49 inches in the past 2 hours.","timestamp":1505950680,"cat":"hail","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:38:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:38:00-05:00","wfo":"grb"},"place":{"name":"blaine","state":"wi","county":"portage","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c30106db6be8146c8b4660","loc":{"long":-90.93,"lat":43.32},"report":{"code":"H","type":"hail","name":"Mount Sterling","detail":{"text":0.75,"hailIN":0.75,"hailMM":19.05},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"Hail ranged from 1\/2 to 3\/4 inch.","timestamp":1505950200,"cat":"hail","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:30:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:30:00-05:00","wfo":"arx"},"place":{"name":"mount sterling","state":"wi","county":"crawford","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c2fd80db6be844598b466d","loc":{"long":-89.77,"lat":44.21},"report":{"code":"R","type":"heavy rain","name":"6 mi ESE New Rome","detail":{"text":4,"rainIN":4,"rainMM":101.6},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"","timestamp":1505949840,"cat":"rain","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:24:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:24:00-05:00","wfo":"arx"},"place":{"name":"rome","state":"wi","county":"adams","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c2f678db6be898338b4673","loc":{"long":-89.3,"lat":44.46},"report":{"code":"H","type":"hail","name":"Amherst Junction","detail":{"text":1,"hailIN":1,"hailMM":25.4},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"","timestamp":1505948340,"cat":"hail","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T17:59:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T17:59:00-05:00","wfo":"grb"},"place":{"name":"amherst junction","state":"wi","county":"portage","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c2f2f6db6be8a2208b4672","loc":{"long":-89.4,"lat":44.26},"report":{"code":"H","type":"hail","name":"Almond","detail":{"text":2,"hailIN":2,"hailMM":50.8},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"Report via social media","timestamp":1505948160,"cat":"hail","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T17:56:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T17:56:00-05:00","wfo":"grb"},"place":{"name":"almond","state":"wi","county":"portage","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}}]}';

That would usually work in most cases but since this has the [0] and increases with each new entry I am not sure how to loop through that as my entry point is different that what I have dealt with before and have been unable to find any working examples for something like this. Not to mention I am not sure how to working ['response'] into the loop ether with those index keys.
Here is a decode example of the array and what I am working with.

How would I loop through this with the Index key [#] and if I am referring to this incorrectly feel free to correct me.
You can use loop in $result["response"] as:
$json = '{"success":true,"error":null,"response":[{"id":"59c30487db6be86b7f8b465a","loc":{"long":-90.45,"lat":43.43},"report":{"code":"R","type":"heavy rain","name":"Gillingham","detail":{"text":1,"rainIN":1,"rainMM":25.4},"reporter":"co-op observer","comments":"","timestamp":1505952240,"cat":"rain","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T19:04:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T19:04:00-05:00","wfo":"arx"},"place":{"name":"gillingham","state":"wi","county":"richland","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c302a9db6be82a758b46e8","loc":{"long":-90.93,"lat":43.32},"report":{"code":"R","type":"heavy rain","name":"Mount Sterling","detail":{"text":2.25,"rainIN":2.25,"rainMM":57.15},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"","timestamp":1505951760,"cat":"rain","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:56:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:56:00-05:00","wfo":"arx"},"place":{"name":"mount sterling","state":"wi","county":"crawford","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c30106db6be8146c8b4661","loc":{"long":-89.53,"lat":44.45},"report":{"code":"R","type":"heavy rain","name":"Plover","detail":{"text":1.05,"rainIN":1.05,"rainMM":26.67},"reporter":"co-op observer","comments":"One hour total rainfall. also measured a 49 mph wind gust at 511 pm. no hail.","timestamp":1505950800,"cat":"rain","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:40:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:40:00-05:00","wfo":"grb"},"place":{"name":"plover","state":"wi","county":"portage","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c3080adb6be8d5138b4654","loc":{"long":-89.33,"lat":44.37},"report":{"code":"H","type":"hail","name":"4 mi NNW Blaine","detail":{"text":0.88,"hailIN":0.88,"hailMM":22.35},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"Nickel size hail and heavy rain. 3.25 to 3.49 inches in the past 2 hours.","timestamp":1505950680,"cat":"hail","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:38:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:38:00-05:00","wfo":"grb"},"place":{"name":"blaine","state":"wi","county":"portage","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c30106db6be8146c8b4660","loc":{"long":-90.93,"lat":43.32},"report":{"code":"H","type":"hail","name":"Mount Sterling","detail":{"text":0.75,"hailIN":0.75,"hailMM":19.05},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"Hail ranged from 1\/2 to 3\/4 inch.","timestamp":1505950200,"cat":"hail","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:30:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:30:00-05:00","wfo":"arx"},"place":{"name":"mount sterling","state":"wi","county":"crawford","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c2fd80db6be844598b466d","loc":{"long":-89.77,"lat":44.21},"report":{"code":"R","type":"heavy rain","name":"6 mi ESE New Rome","detail":{"text":4,"rainIN":4,"rainMM":101.6},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"","timestamp":1505949840,"cat":"rain","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T18:24:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T18:24:00-05:00","wfo":"arx"},"place":{"name":"rome","state":"wi","county":"adams","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c2f678db6be898338b4673","loc":{"long":-89.3,"lat":44.46},"report":{"code":"H","type":"hail","name":"Amherst Junction","detail":{"text":1,"hailIN":1,"hailMM":25.4},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"","timestamp":1505948340,"cat":"hail","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T17:59:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T17:59:00-05:00","wfo":"grb"},"place":{"name":"amherst junction","state":"wi","county":"portage","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}},{"id":"59c2f2f6db6be8a2208b4672","loc":{"long":-89.4,"lat":44.26},"report":{"code":"H","type":"hail","name":"Almond","detail":{"text":2,"hailIN":2,"hailMM":50.8},"reporter":"trained spotter","comments":"Report via social media","timestamp":1505948160,"cat":"hail","dateTimeISO":"2017-09-20T17:56:00-05:00","datetime":"2017-09-20T17:56:00-05:00","wfo":"grb"},"place":{"name":"almond","state":"wi","county":"portage","country":"us"},"profile":{"tz":"America\/Chicago"}}]}';

hope you are fine today.

Now I want to loop through that array, as I want to re-convert it into my XML format, I am able to access the first level of the array and the orderitems -> item -> code where the client purchased one single item, but I am not able to loop inside deeper level where the client purchased more than one item (second array)
here is my code
foreach($array['data']['transaction'] as $transaction){
//echo $transaction['fields']['transactionid']."<br>";
//echo $transaction['orderitems']['item']['code']."<br>";
if(isset($transaction['orderitems']['item']['code'])){
echo $transaction['orderitems']['item']['code']."<br>";
} else {
foreach($transaction['orderitems']['item'] as $multi_item){
echo "<--- MULTI ---><br>";
//tried so many things and none has worked;
//like $multi_item['code'];
}
}
}
how to access the code of each item purchased by john doe?
You can access this data by filtering the array.
In PHP >= 5.5.0 you can make a search like this;
$key = array_search('John Doe', array_column($yourArray, 'cardholdersname'));
This method will return the array that matched given criteria.

It appears as though new line feeds are being inserted randomly throughout the josn string. I am not sure if it is just how firebug is outputting the string, but copying-and-pasting the string into jsonLINT produces errors.
Any help would be appreciated.

How can i store the value to edd_phone [edd_phone] into variable $mobileNo ?
Sorry for ths kind of a question.But badly need help
If you want to assign the value of [edd_phone] to $mobileNo , use this :
$mobileNo = $purchase_data['post_data']['edd_phone'];
As a side note : Your array is very complexly nested. If I were you, I would avoid such complex arrays.

Getting the value of first array from the array

In php I have an array look like this.
Array ( [0] =>
[1] => Array ([id] => 9 [slot] => 2 [name] => Test Ad [alt] => Test Ad [dimension_width] => 300 [dimension_height] => 400 [clicks] => 1 [start_date] => 06/07/2013 [end_date] => 07/07/2013 [status] => 1 [target] => http://images.google.com [image_url] => http://localhost/WebSites/coffee/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/uwp5-1-151553.jpeg [pre_exp_email] => 0 )

)
From here I want to get the first value of array. For example I want to get the value of first array
[1] => Array ([id] => 9 [slot] => 2 [name] => Test Ad [alt] => Test Ad [dimension_width] => 300 [dimension_height] => 400 [clicks] => 1 [start_date] => 06/07/2013 [end_date] => 07/07/2013 [status] => 1 [target] => http://images.google.com [image_url] => http://localhost/WebSites/coffee/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/uwp5-1-151553.jpeg [pre_exp_email] => 0 )
So can someone kindly tell me how to get the value of 1st array?Any help and suggestions will be really appreciable. Thanks
say all your array was in a variable $myArray, then
myArray[1]
will give you your first array
