each

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7)

each — 返回数组中当前的键／值对并将数组指针向前移动一步

说明

array each ( array &$array )

返回数组中当前的键／值对并将数组指针向前移动一步

在执行 each() 之后，数组指针将停留在数组中的下一个单元或者当碰到数组结尾时停留在最后一个单元。如果要再用 each 遍历数组，必须使用 reset() 。

参数

array: 输入的数组。

返回值

返回 array 数组中当前指针位置的键／值对并向前移动数组指针。键值对被返回为四个单元的数组，键名为0，1，key和 value。单元 0 和 key 包含有数组单元的键名，1 和 value 包含有数据。

如果内部指针越过了数组的末端，则 each() 返回 FALSE 。

范例

Example #1 each() 例子

  <?php
$foo  = array( "bob" ,  "fred" ,  "jussi" ,  "jouni" ,  "egon" ,  "marliese" );
 $bar  =  each ( $foo );
 print_r ( $bar );
 ?>

$bar 现在包含有如下的键／值对：

Array
(
    [1] => bob
    [value] => bob
    [0] => 0
    [key] => 0
)

  <?php
$foo  = array( "Robert"  =>  "Bob" ,  "Seppo"  =>  "Sepi" );
 $bar  =  each ( $foo );
 print_r ( $bar );
 ?>

$bar 现在包含有如下的键／值对：

Array
(
    [1] => Bob
    [value] => Bob
    [0] => Robert
    [key] => Robert
)

each() 经常和 list() 结合使用来遍历数组，例如：

Example #2 用 each() 遍历数组

  <?php
$fruit  = array( 'a'  =>  'apple' ,  'b'  =>  'banana' ,  'c'  =>  'cranberry' );

 reset ( $fruit );
while (list( $key ,  $val ) =  each ( $fruit )) {
    echo  " $key  =>  $val \n" ;
}
 ?>

以上例程会输出：

a => apple
b => banana
c => cranberry

Caution

因为将一个数组赋值给另一个数组时会重置原来的数组指针，因此在上边的例子中如果我们在循环内部将 $fruit 赋给了另一个变量的话将会导致无限循环。

Warning

each() will also accept objects, but may return unexpected results. Its therefore not recommended to iterate though object properties with each() .

Ok Here's one for iterating multidimensional array .. using foreach

<?php $members = array( "member1" => array ( "First Name" => "Robert", "Last Name" => "Burton", "Age" => "20" ), "member2" => array ( "First Name" => "Cheska", "Last Name" => "Vladesk", "Age" => "21" ), "member3" => array ( "First Name" => "Gino", "Last Name" => "Marley", "Age" => "19" ), "member4" => array ( "First Name" => "Jake", "Last Name" => "White", "Age" => "16" ), ); $dataSetCount = count($members); echo "<h1>There are $dataSetCount members</h1>"; $i = 0; foreach ($members as $each_members) { $i++; echo "<h2>Member $i</h2>"; foreach ($each_members as $position => $details) { echo "<b>$position</b>" . ": " . $details . "<br />"; } } ?>

If you forget to reset the array before each(), the same code may give different results with different php versions.

<?php $a = array(1,2,3); foreach ($a AS $k => $v) $a[$k] = 2*$v; while(list($k2, $v2) = each($a)) { echo($v2."\n"); } ?>

I wanted to be able to add to an array while looping through it. foreach does not allow this because it is using a secret copy of the array. each makes this possible (tested on PHP 4).
<?php $shopping_list = array('oysters', 'caviare'); reset ($shopping_list); while (list($key, $value) = each ($shopping_list)) { if ($value == 'oysters') $shopping_list[] = 'champagne'; elseif ($value == 'champagne') $shopping_list[] = 'ice'; } print_r($shopping_list); // Array ( [0] => oysters [1] => caviare [2] => champagne [3] => ice ) ?>

Regarding speed of foreach vs while(list) =each
I wrote a benchmark script and the results are that clearly foreach is faster. MUCH faster. Even with huge arrays (especially with huge arrays). I tested with sizes 100,000. 1,000,000 and 10,000,000. To do the test with 10 million i had to set my memory limit real high, it was close to 1gb by the time it actually worked. Anyways,

<?php function getDiff($start, $end) { $s = explode(' ', $start); $stot = $s[1] + $s[0]; $e = explode(' ', $end); $etot = $e[1] + $e[0]; return $etot - $stot; } $lim=10000000; $arr = array(); for ($i=0; $i<$lim; $i++) { $arr[$i] = $i/2; } $start = microtime(); foreach ($arr as $key=>$val); $end = microtime(); echo "time for foreach = " . getDiff($start, $end) . ".\n"; reset($arr); $start = microtime(); while (list($key, $val) = each($arr)); $end = microtime(); echo "time list each = " . getDiff($start, $end) . ".\n"; ?>

here are some of my results: with 1,000,000
time for foreach = 0.0244591236115.
time list each = 0.158002853394.
desktop:/media/sda5/mpwolfe/tests$ php test.php
time for foreach = 0.0245339870453.
time list each = 0.154260158539.
desktop:/media/sda5/mpwolfe/tests$ php test.php
time for foreach = 0.0269000530243.
time list each = 0.157305955887.

then with 10,000,000:
desktop:/media/sda5/mpwolfe/tests$ php test.php
time for foreach = 1.96586894989.
time list each = 14.1371650696.
desktop:/media/sda5/mpwolfe/tests$ php test.php
time for foreach = 2.02504014969.
time list each = 13.7696218491.
desktop:/media/sda5/mpwolfe/tests$ php test.php
time for foreach = 2.0246758461.
time list each = 13.8425710201.

by the way, these results are with php 5.2 i believe, and a linux machine with 3gb of ram and 2.8ghz dual core pentium

If you want to iterate over a two-dimensional, sparse array, and want to  first display every first element, then every second and so on, you can use this code:

$fruits = array ( "fruits"  => array ( "a" => "orange",
                                      "b" => "banana",
                                      "c" => "apple"
                                    ),
                 "numbers" => array ( 1,
                                      2,
                                      3,
                                      4,
                                      5,
                                      6
                                    ),
                 "holes"   => array (      "first",
                                      5 => "second",
                                           "third",
                                     10 => "fourth",
                                    )
               );

$done = False;
while ($done == False) {
       $done = True;

       // Important: &$val has to be a reference (use the &),
       // if you don't, the internal counter of $val will be
       // re-initialized each time and you loop over the first elements
       // for eternity.

       foreach($fruits as $key => &$val) {

               if (list($inner_key, $inner_val) = each(&$val)) {
                       $done = False;
                       echo "$key : : $inner_key => $inner_val  <br>  \n";
               }

       }
}

NOTE: this is just a quick hack, if you know a better way, post it!

[#7] sjoerd-php at linuxonly dot nl [2006-03-31 06:04:25]

Use foreach instead of while, list and each. Foreach is:
- easier to read
- faster
- not influenced by the array pointer, so it does not need reset().

It works like this:
<?php $arr = array('foo', 'bar'); foreach ($arr as $value) { echo "The value is $value."; } $arr = array('key' => 'value', 'foo' => 'bar'); foreach ($arr as $key => $value) { echo "Key: $key, value: $value"; } ?>

To panania at 3ringwebs dot com:

If you know for certain that you are only receiving one row, the while becomes redundant. To shorten your code:

$strSQL = "SELECT * FROM table WHERE id=1";
$RecordsetSelect = $db->runQuery ($strSQL);
list($key, $val) = mysql_fetch_row($RecordsetSelect);
echo "$key => $val\n";
mysql_free_result($RecordsetSelect);

With only one row being returned this is more elegant a solution, but just being nit-picky in essence. It also shows another quick way of using list.

[#9] amby2 at izh dot com [2005-11-24 09:55:14]

I've found a compact way to cycle through an associative array using for statement (not while, as it has been done in the most of examples below):

<?php for (reset($array); list($key) = each($array);) { echo $key; echo $array[$key]; } ?>

or

<?php for (reset($array); list($key, $value) = each($array);) { echo $key; echo $value; echo $array[$key]; } ?>

You hardly forget to add reset($array) code line using such construction.

[#10] Sopinon [2005-07-23 05:17:20]

If you want to display the hole structure (tree) of your array, then you can use this recursive solution.

<?PHP $tree= ""; array_tree($your_array); echo $tree; // Recursive Function function array_tree($array, $index=0){ global $tree; $space=""; for ($i=0;$i<$index;$i++){ $space .= " "; } if(gettype($array)=="array"){ $index++; while (list ($x, $tmp) = each ($array)){ $tree .= $space."$x => $tmp\n"; array_tree($tmp, $index); } } } ?>

[#11] james at gogo dot co dot nz [2004-11-02 07:29:55]

It's worth noting that references to an array don't have thier own array pointer, and taking a reference to an array doesn't reset it's array pointer, so this works as you would expect it would by eaching the first three items of the array, rather than the first item 3 times.

<?php $x = array(1,2,3); print_r(each($x)); echo "\n"; $y =& $x; print_r(each($y)); echo "\n"; $z =& $y; print_r(each($z)); echo "\n"; ?>

This function will help you dump any variable into XML structure.

//dump var into simple XML structure
function var_dump_xml($tagname,$variable,$level=0)
{
for($i=0;$i<$level;$i++) $marg.=' ';
if (eregi('^[0-9].*$',$tagname)) $tagname='tag_'.$tagname; //XML tag cannot start with [0-9] character
if (is_array($variable))
{
    echo $marg."<$tagname>\n";
    while (list ($key, $val) = each ($variable))  var_dump_xml($key,$val,$level+1);
    echo $marg."</$tagname>\n";
}
elseif (strlen($variable)>0)
{
     echo $marg."<$tagname>".htmlspecialchars($variable)."</$tagname>\n";
};
};

I wrote a short and pretty simple script to search through associative arrays for some value in the values, heres a simplifyed example of it:

<?php $foo['bob'] = "bob is ugly"; $foo['bill'] = "bill is rich"; $foo['barbie'] = "barbie is cute"; $search = "rich"; echo "searching the array foo for $search:<br>"; reset ($foo); while (list ($key, $val) = each ($foo)) { if (preg_match ("/$search/i", $val)) { print "A match was found in $key.<br />"; } else { print "A match was not found in $key.<br />"; } } ?>

will output:
Searching the array foo for rich:
A match was not found in bob
A match was found in bill
A match was not found in barbie

[#14] [2002-02-13 04:10:35]

I usually work a lot with 2D arrays. Since I've had some trouble traversing them correctly maybe someone out there also experienced those problems and can use this one.

It's based on a 2D-array called $array[$x][$y]. At some (but not necessarily all) (x,y) there is a value I want to reach. Note that I do not know beforehand the ranges of $x or $y (that is their highest and lowest values).

while (list ($x, $tmp) = each ($array)) {
   while (list ($y, $val) = each ($tmp)) {
      echo "$x, $y, $val";
   }
}

The answer for each (x,y) pair can thus be (providng, of course those values where in your array beforehand):

1, 1, 2
2, 2, 0
3, 1, 1
5, 2, 2
5, 1, 2

Note that only the (x,y) pairs with a corresponding value is shown.

Be sure to use the integrated functions "unset();" or "reset();" - many people forget this and wonder about the created output!

[#16] kris at angelanthony dot com [2000-10-25 13:03:27]

Remember to use "reset()" if you iterate over an array with "each()" more than once! Example:

while(list($key,$value) = each($array)){
// code here
}

NOW the internal pointer on $array is at the end of the array, and another attempt at an iteration like the one above will result in zero executions of the code within the "while" block. You MUST call "reset($array)" to reset the internal array pointer before iterating over the array again from the first element.
