cakephp - PHP unique array function for nested array -
is there way use array_unique function working nested array below? want rid of date duplicates , 2 dates out array...
array ( [0] => array ( [value] => 1311044688 [name] => 19th jul 2011 ) [1] => array ( [value] => 1311044919 [name] => 19th jul 2011 ) [2] => array ( [value] => 1311045076 [name] => 19th jul 2011 ) [3] => array ( [value] => 1311164873 [name] => 20th jul 2011 ) [4] => array ( [value] => 1311165000 [name] => 20th jul 2011 ) )
i'd write array array using date keys, , "values" value. that's fastest way achieve you're looking for.
something like:
$uniqueary = array() foreach ($ary $item) { $uniqueary[$item['name']] = $item['value']; }
you'd want include bit of logic determine value takes precedence in case of dupes.
