Question

Hey everyone, I have a database result that returns from a method. I need to push 4 more values onto the stack but I need to name the keys. array_push() automatically assigns an int. How can I overcome this behavior?

Array
(
    [these] => df
    [are] => df
    [the] => sdf
    [keys] => sd
    [ineed] => daf
    [0] => something
    [1] => something
    [2] => something
    [3] => something
)

The keys that are int values need to be changed. How can I do this using array_push?

Answer 1

If the four values you want to use are already in an associative array themselves, you can use + to merge the two arrays:

$array1 = array('these' => ..., 'are' => .., 'keys' => ...);
$four_entries = array('four' => ..., 'more' => ..., 'keys' => ..., '!' => ...);

$merged_array = $array1 + $four_entries;
