i'm in a lot of brain-pain, please advise. I have the following situation:
-
i have the next multidimensional array:
$numbers = array ( "one_digit" => array (1,2,3,4,5), "two_digits" => array (20,21,22,23,24,25), "three_digits" => array (301,302,303,304,304), "mixed_digits" => array (9,29,309,1) );
-
i need a way to search in the $numbers array for the following:
-- search if number 20 is in any $numbers array and echo where it is found ex. $find1 = m_array_search("20", $numbers); echo "i've found the searched value in ".$find1." subarray of $numbers"; result: "i've found the searched value in two_digits subarray of $numbers"
-- search if number 1 is in any $numbers array and echo where it is found ex. $find2 = m_array_search("1", $numbers); echo "i've found the searched value in ".$find2." subarray of $numbers"; result: "i've found the searched value in two_digits,mixed_digits subarray of $numbers"
thus function must be able to spot presence in one or many "subarrays". sorry if i've missued the term "subarray"
THANK YOU!!!
