The Vector class in PHP is an array that is automatically resized. The elements of a Vector instance are accessible via indexes.
This shot discusses the merge method of the Vector class.
The merge method combines the Vector instance it is called on with the elements inside ＄values to produce a new Vector that is then returned.
Note: The elements of
＄valuescome after the elements of the current instance of theVectoron which themergemethod is invoked.
<?php
public Ds\Vector::merge(mixed $values): Ds\Vector
?>
＄values is an object that is traversable, meaning an object that implements Traversable interface (e.g. Vector); it can be an array as well.Vector that contains the elements of the current instance and elements of ＄values is returned.None.
<?php$vec = new \Ds\Vector([1, 2, 3]);$arr = [4, 5, 6];print_r($vec->merge($arr));print_r($vec);?>
Output:
Ds\Vector Object
(
[0] => 1
[1] => 2
[2] => 3
[3] => 4
[4] => 5
[5] => 6
)
Ds\Vector Object
(
[0] => 1
[1] => 2
[2] => 3
)
In the example above, a vector ＄vec is initialized with the values 1, 2, and 3. An array ＄arr is initialized with the values 4, 5, and 6. The merge method is invoked on ＄vec with the ＄values argument containing the array ＄arr. This results in the merge method call returning a Vector that contains elements of both ＄vec and ＄arr.
Note:
＄vecitself remains unchanged.
