I would like to know how-to get the first value of repeated items too in an array using something like array_unique.
With array_unique I get the last one in the list as here ...
Code: Select all
<?php
$array_test = array('111' => 'first one', '111' => 'middle one', '111' => 'last one', '222' => 'first one', '222' => 'last one', '333' => 'first one', '444' => 'first one');
$array_test = array_intersect($array_test, array_unique($array_test));
echo '<pre>';
print_r($array_test);
echo '</pre>';
?>... and I would like to print ...Array
(
[111] => last one
[222] => last one
[333] => first one
[444] => first one
)
Is there some way to get that array_unique works like that or some other way to remove duplicated items but getting its first value not the last?Array
(
[111] => first one
[222] => first one
[333] => first one
[444] => first one
)
Thank you very much in advance. This issue is important for me.
