Question

This question is basically similar to SoulieBaby’s question here:Split MYSQL results into 4 arrays, except that I wanted to split the result to contain a specific length.

Say, I wanted the result of an array which has a length of 9 to be splitted and have the splitted array to contain 5 lengths. So first array will have 5 and second will have 4.

Is this possible?

Thanks so much for any help!

Answer 1

The referenced question wanted to always have 4 chunks, therefore the solution was to create chunks of size ceil(count($array) / 5).

This case is easier, the (maximum) size is constant but the number of chunks vary.

Therefore the answer is simply:

array_chunk($array, 5);
