put 2 arrays into 1

Anon

Hi,

I have to basic arrays, both may be the exact same sometimes and slighly different other times. I need to compare them and create a new array with only unique elements.

for example:
array1 = one, two, three
array2 = one, two, four, five

I wish to have:
array3 = one, two, three, four, five.

is there a function to do this ?

Cheers Big Ears

Check the PHP manual...

http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-merge.php

<?
$array3 = $array1 + $array2;
$array3 = array_unique ($array3);
?>

you may then want to sort() array3

Anon

yes..
$array1 = array('1','2','3');
$array2 = array('4','5','6');

$array = array_merge($array1,$array2);

which in subsequnce will turn the two arrays
into array('1','2','3','4','5','6'); one big array.
