更改多维数组的结构

Question

I have some code that creates a multi-dimensional array, but my result seems to be an array of arrays, which is not what I want. I want to flatten this array. How can I change this array result:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [0] => Array
                (
                    [2011-11-18 00:00:00] => C
                )

            [1] => Array
                (
                    [2011-11-18 00:00:00] => I
                )

            [2] => Array
                (
                    [2011-11-18 00:00:00] => S
                )

        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [0] => Array
                (
                    [2011-11-22 00:00:00] => C
                )

            [1] => Array
                (
                    [2011-11-22 00:00:00] => S
                )

        )

)

into something that is not an "array of arrays"? Here is the code that creates the array of arrays:

$qrybilled = $this->db->query("SELECT tbltc.BILLED FROM tbltc WHERE tbltc.PN = $pn AND tbltc.Y = $taxyear AND tbltc.SCENARIO = $scenario GROUP BY BILLED");
$x = 0; $arr_billed = array();

foreach ($qrybilled->result() as $row) {
$qry = $this->db->query("SELECT tbltc.BILLED, tbltc.TC, tbltc.CAT FROM tbltc WHERE tbltc.PN = $pn AND tbltc.Y = $taxyear AND tbltc.SCENARIO = $scenario AND tbltc.BILLED = '".$row->BILLED."' GROUP BY TC");

    $tmp = array();
    foreach ($qry->result() as $row) {      
        $tmp[] = array( $row->BILLED => $row->TC);
    }
    $arr_billed[] = $tmp; 

}
$data['billed'] = $arr_billed; 

If you can suggest a better way to build the array so that it is not an "array of arrays", that would be great. Thanks for your help.

• EDIT -

The answer from NickB worked perfectly for me and produced the following output, which is what I was looking for:

Array
(
    [2011-11-18 00:00:00] => Array
        (
            [0] => C
            [1] => I
            [2] => S
        )

    [2011-11-22 00:00:00] => Array
        (
            [0] => C
            [1] => S
        )

)

You can loop through all of the entries in the array to create a new array.

$result = array();

foreach( $array as $inner_array)
{
    foreach( $inner_array as $entry)
    {
        foreach( $entry as $key => $value)
        {
            $result[ $key ][] = $value;
        }
    }
}

Output:

array(2) {
  ["2011-11-18 00:00:00"]=>
  array(3) {
    [0]=>
    string(1) "C"
    [1]=>
    string(1) "I"
    [2]=>
    string(1) "S"
  }
  ["2011-11-22 00:00:00"]=> 
  array(2) {
    [0]=>
    string(1) "C"
    [1]=>
    string(1) "S"
  }
}
