The reason behind in_array returning True could be the string-to-number conversion. When a string is passed to the function, it returns 0, which is the value that needs to be searched for.PHP uses loose juggling, i.e. using == instead of === when elements are compared. Hence, their values are compared and not the types.Another reason is type juggling, which means a variable type is dealt with in the context of the code.For example- when a float value is assigned to a variable, it becomes a floating-point value. It behaves in a way when a string is casted to an integerTo ... Read More

The code inside the 'Model' and the 'Controller' needs to be changed to include code that is shown below −Inside the 'Controller'$header = $this->model_name->call_head(); foreach($header as $item) {    $name = $item['name'];    $array['name'] = $name;    $array['data'] = $item['data'];    $child_val = $this->model_name->call_child($name);    foreach($child_val as $value) {       $array['child'] = array(          'child_name' => $value['child_name'],          'child_data' => $value['child_data']       );    } }Inside the 'model'public function call_head() {    $query = "CALL PROCEDURE_HEAD()";    $result = $this->db->query($query)->result_array();    $query->next_result();    $query->free_result();    return $result; } public function ...

The json_decode function can be used as shown below −json_decode($json_string_that_needs_to_be_converted, true);The below lines of code can be used to convert JSONL to array format −$json_string = '["m@gmail.com", "p@gmail.com", "q@gmail.com"]'; $array_of_data=json_decode($json_string);An alternate is to use the below code, wherein the way json_string has been defined changes −Example$json_string = "[\"m@gmail.com\", \"p@gmail.com\", \"q@gmail.com\"]"; $array_of_data=json_decode($json_string);OutputThis will produce the following output −Array("m@gmail.com", "p@gmail.com", "q@gmail.com")Read More

The below code can be used to convert hex value into HSL value −function hex_To_Hsl($hex) {    $hex_val = array($hex_val[0].$hex_val[1], $hex_val[2].$hex_val[3], $hex_val[4].$hex_val[5]);    $rgb_val = array_map(function($part) {       return hexdec($part) / 255;    }, $hex_val);    $max_val = max($rgb_val);    $min_val = min($rgb_val);    $l = ($max_val + $min_val) / 2;    if ($max_val == $min_val) {       $h = $s = 0;    } else {       $diff = $max_val - $min_val;       $s = $l > 0.5 ? $diff / (2 - $max_val - $min_val) : $diff / ($max_val + ...

A quick way of doing this has been shown below −if (array_flip($set)[$value] !== null) {    echo "something"; //take some action }To customize the number of keys, the function can be customized in the below manner −function array_keys_exists(array $keys, array $arr) {    return !array_diff_key(array_flip($keys), $arr); }

Data can be sent through JSON or via normal POST. Following is an example showing data sent through JSON −var value_1 = 1; var value_2 = 2; var value_3 = 3; $.ajax({    type: "POST",    contentType: "application/json; charset=utf-8",    url: "your_url_goes_here",    data: { data_1: value_1, data_2: value_2, data_3: value_3 },    success: function (result) {       // perform operations here    } });With normal post, the below code can be used −$.ajax({    type: "POST",    url: $('form').attr("action"),    data: $('#form0').serialize(),    success: function (result) {       // perform operations here    } });An ...

String has a time zone, and there is usually no need to set a default time zone. But when it needs to be printed, the default time zone can be set explicitly. Below is the code to do the same −Default timezoneExample Live Demoecho date_default_timezone_get();OutputThis will produce the following output −UTCWhen timezone is specifiedExample Live Demoecho date("Y-m-d H:i:s",strtotime("1/1/2020 00:00:00 America/Los_Angeles"));OutputThis will produce the following output −2020-01-01 08:00:00 Another way of specifying timezoneExample Live Demoecho date("Y-m-d H:i:s",strtotime("1/1/2020 00:00:00"));OutputThis will produce the following output −2020-01-01 00:00:00

In PHP, the 'exec()' or 'shell_exec’ function can be used. It can be executed via the shell and the result can be returned as a string. It returns an error if NULL is passed from the command line or returns no output at all. 'exec()' Function The exec function is used for executing commands in the shell and command line of an external program and optinally capture the last line of the output. Syntax exec(string $command, array &$output = null, int &$return_var = null); 'shell_exec()' Function The shell_exec is similiar to exec but it captures and return the ... Read More
