I want to remove duplicate values from array. I know to use array_unique(array)
function but faced problem in foreach
loop. This is not a duplicate question because I have read several questions regarding this and most of them force to use array_unique(array)
function but I have no idea to use it in foreach
loop. Here is my php function.
$images = scandir($dir);
$listImages=array();
foreach($images as $image){
$listImages=$image;
echo substr($listImages, 0, -25) ."<br>"; //remove last 25 chracters
}
How to do this?
It is very complicated to remove duplicate values from array within foreach loop. Simply you can push all elements to one array and then remove the duplicates and then get values as you need. Try with following code.
$listImages=array();
$images = scandir($dir);
foreach($images as $image){
$editedImage = substr($image, 0, -25);
array_push($listImages, $editedImage);
}
$filteredList = array_unique($listImages);
foreach($filteredList as $oneitem){
echo $oneitem;
}
