array_diff_key

Description

array_diff_key() returns an array containing all the values of array1 that have keys that are not present in any of the other arguments. Note that the associativity is preserved. This function is like array_diff() except the comparison is done on the keys instead of the values.

Beispiel 1. array_diff_key() example <?php $array1 = array('blue'  => 1, 'red'  => 2, 'green'  => 3, 'purple' => 4); $array2 = array('green' => 5, 'blue' => 6, 'yellow' => 7, 'cyan'   => 8); var_dump(array_diff_key($array1, $array2)); ?> Das oben gezeigte Beispiel erzeugt folgende Ausgabe: array(2) { ["red"]=> int(2) ["purple"]=> int(4) }

The two keys from the key => value pairs are considered equal only if (string) $key1 === (string) $key2 . In other words a strict type check is executed so the string representation must be the same.
