ARRAY_INTERSECT_ASSOC(3)						 1						  ARRAY_INTERSECT_ASSOC(3)

array_intersect_assoc - Computes the intersection of arrays with additional index check

SYNOPSIS

       array array_intersect_assoc (array  $array1, array  $array2, [array  $...])

DESCRIPTION

       array_intersect_assoc(3)  returns  an  array containing all the values of $array1 that are present in all the arguments. Note that the keys
       are used in the comparison unlike in array_intersect(3).

PARAMETERS

	      o $array1
		- The array with master values to check.

	      o $array2
		- An array to compare values against.

	      o $...
		- A variable list of arrays to compare.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns an associative array containing all the values in $array1 that are present in all of the arguments.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      array_intersect_assoc(3) example

	      <?php
	      $array1 = array("a" => "green", "b" => "brown", "c" => "blue", "red");
	      $array2 = array("a" => "green", "b" => "yellow", "blue", "red");
	      $result_array = array_intersect_assoc($array1, $array2);
	      print_r($result_array);
	      ?>

	      The above example will output:

	      Array
	      (
		  [a] => green
	      )

	In our example you see that only the pair "a" => "green" is present in both arrays and thus is returned. The value "red" is  not  returned
       because in $array1 its key is 0 while the key of "red" in $array2 is 1, and the key "b" is not returned because its values are different in
       each array.

	The two values from the key => value pairs are considered equal only if (string) $elem1 === (string) $elem2 . In other words a strict type
       check is executed so the string representation must be the same.

ARRAY_MERGE(3)								 1							    ARRAY_MERGE(3)

array_merge - Merge one or more arrays

SYNOPSIS

       array array_merge (array  $array1, [array  $...])

DESCRIPTION

	Merges	the  elements of one or more arrays together so that the values of one are appended to the end of the previous one. It returns the
       resulting array.

	If the input arrays have the same string keys, then the later value for that key will overwrite the previous one. If, however, the  arrays
       contain numeric keys, the later value will not overwrite the original value, but will be appended.

	Values in the input array with numeric keys will be renumbered with incrementing keys starting from zero in the result array.

PARAMETERS

	      o $array1
		- Initial array to merge.

	      o $...
		- Variable list of arrays to merge.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns the resulting array.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      array_merge(3) example

	      <?php
	      $array1 = array("color" => "red", 2, 4);
	      $array2 = array("a", "b", "color" => "green", "shape" => "trapezoid", 4);
	      $result = array_merge($array1, $array2);
	      print_r($result);
	      ?>

	      The above example will output:

	      Array
	      (
		  [color] => green
		  [0] => 2
		  [1] => 4
		  [2] => a
		  [3] => b
		  [shape] => trapezoid
		  [4] => 4
	      )

       Example #2

	      Simple array_merge(3) example

	      <?php
	      $array1 = array();
	      $array2 = array(1 => "data");
	      $result = array_merge($array1, $array2);
	      ?>

	       Don't forget that numeric keys will be renumbered!

	      Array
	      (
		  [0] => data
	      )

	       If  you	want  to  append array elements from the second array to the first array while not overwriting the elements from the first
	      array and not re-indexing, use the + array union operator:

	      <?php
	      $array1 = array(0 => 'zero_a', 2 => 'two_a', 3 => 'three_a');
	      $array2 = array(1 => 'one_b', 3 => 'three_b', 4 => 'four_b');
	      $result = $array1 + $array2;
	      var_dump($result);
	      ?>

	       The keys from the first array will be preserved. If an array key exists in both arrays, then the element from the first array  will
	      be used and the matching key's element from the second array will be ignored.

	      array(5) {
		[0]=>
		string(6) "zero_a"
		[2]=>
		string(5) "two_a"
		[3]=>
		string(7) "three_a"
		[1]=>
		string(5) "one_b"
		[4]=>
		string(6) "four_b"
	      }

       Example #3

	      array_merge(3) with non-array types

	      <?php
	      $beginning = 'foo';
	      $end = array(1 => 'bar');
	      $result = array_merge((array)$beginning, (array)$end);
	      print_r($result);
	      ?>

	      The above example will output:

	      Array
		  (
		      [0] => foo
		      [1] => bar
		  )
