I have a multi-dimentional array set up as follows
array() {
["type1"] =>
array() {
["ticket1"] =>
array(9) {
// ticket details here
}
["ticket2"] =>
array(10) {
// ticket details here
}
["ticket3"] =>
array(9) {
// ticket details here
}
}
["type2"] =>
array() {
["ticket1"] =>
array(9) {
// ticket details here
}
["ticket2"] =>
array(10) {
// ticket details here
}
["ticket3"] =>
array(9) {
// ticket details here
}
}
}
etc.
I am trying to get a count of the total number of tickets in the array (number of second level items), but the number of types is variable as are the number of fields that each ticket has, so I cannot use COUNT_RECURSIVE and maths to get the number.
Can anyone help me?
$count = 0;
ReplyDeleteforeach ($array as $type) {
$count+= count($type);
}
The easiest way to do this is one simple foreach loop:
ReplyDelete$count = 0;
foreach( $tickets as $ticketType){
$count += count( $ticketType);
}
$multiArrayTickets = array(...);
ReplyDelete$countTickets = 0;
foreach($multiArrayTickets as $tickets)
$countTickets += count($tickets);
echo $countTickets . " tickets found.";
