Quick example for using array_udiff to do a multi-dimensional diff
Returns values of $arr1 that are not in $arr2
<?php
$arr1 = array( array('Bob', 42), array('Phil', 37), array('Frank', 39) );
$arr2 = array( array('Phil', 37), array('Mark', 45) );
$arr3 = array_udiff($arr1, $arr2, create_function(
'$a,$b',
'return strcmp( implode("", $a), implode("", $b) ); ')
);
print_r($arr3);
?>
Output:
Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[0] => Bob
[1] => 42
)
[2] => Array
(
[0] => Frank
[1] => 39
)
)

(PHP 5)
array_udiff — Calcule la différence entre deux tableaux en utilisant une fonction rappel
Description
Calcule la différence entre deux tableaux en utilisant une fonction rappel. Cette fonctionne agit comme la fonction array_diff() qui utilise une fonction interne pour comparer les données.
Liste de paramètres
-
array1 -
Le premier tableau.
-
array2 -
Le second tableau.
-
data_compare_func -
La fonction de comparaison.
La fonction de comparaison doit retourner un entier inférieur à, égal à, ou supérieur à 0 si le premier argument est considéré comme, respectivement, inférieur à, égal à, ou supérieur au second.
Valeurs de retour
Retourne un tableau contenant toutes les valeurs du tableau
array1 qui ne sont pas présentes dans aucun
autre argument.
Exemples
Exemple #1 Exemple avec array_udiff() en utilisant les objets stdClass
<?php
// Arrays to compare
$array1 = array(new stdclass, new stdclass,
new stdclass, new stdclass,
);
$array2 = array(
new stdclass, new stdclass,
);
// Définit quelques propriétés pour chaque objet
$array1[0]->width = 11; $array1[0]->height = 3;
$array1[1]->width = 7; $array1[1]->height = 1;
$array1[2]->width = 2; $array1[2]->height = 9;
$array1[3]->width = 5; $array1[3]->height = 7;
$array2[0]->width = 7; $array2[0]->height = 5;
$array2[1]->width = 9; $array2[1]->height = 2;
function compare_by_area($a, $b) {
$areaA = $a->width * $a->height;
$areaB = $b->width * $b->height;
if ($areaA < $areaB) {
return -1;
} elseif ($areaA > $areaB) {
return 1;
} else {
return 0;
}
}
print_r(array_udiff($array1, $array2, 'compare_by_area'));
?>
L'exemple ci-dessus va afficher :
Array
(
[0] => stdClass Object
(
[width] => 11
[height] => 3
)
[1] => stdClass Object
(
[width] => 7
[height] => 1
)
)
Exemple #2 Exemple avec array_udiff() en utilisant des objets DateTime
<?php
Class MyCalendar {
public $free = array();
public $booked = array();
public function __construct($week = 'now') {
$start = new DateTime($week);
$start->modify('Monday this week midnight');
$end = clone $start;
$end->modify('Friday this week midnight');
$interval = new DateInterval('P1D');
foreach (new DatePeriod($start, $interval, $end) as $freeTime) {
$this->free[] = $freeTime;
}
}
public function bookAppointment(DateTime $date, $note) {
$this->booked[] = array('date' => $date->modify('midnight'), 'note' => $note);
}
public function checkAvailability() {
return array_udiff($this->free, $this->booked, array($this, 'customCompare'));
}
public function customCompare($free, $booked) {
if (is_array($free)) $a = $free['date'];
else $a = $free;
if (is_array($booked)) $b = $booked['date'];
else $b = $booked;
if ($a == $b) {
return 0;
} elseif ($a > $b) {
return 1;
} else {
return -1;
}
}
}
// Crée un calendrier pour les rendez-vous hébdomadaires
$myCalendar = new MyCalendar;
// Enregistre quelques rendez-vous pour cette semaine
$myCalendar->bookAppointment(new DateTime('Monday this week'), "Cleaning GoogleGuy's apartment.");
$myCalendar->bookAppointment(new DateTime('Wednesday this week'), "Going on a snowboarding trip.");
$myCalendar->bookAppointment(new DateTime('Friday this week'), "Fixing buggy code.");
// Vérifie la disponibilité en jours, en comparant les dates $booked avec les dates $free
echo "I'm available on the following days this week...\n\n";
foreach ($myCalendar->checkAvailability() as $free) {
echo $free->format('l'), "\n";
}
echo "\n\n";
echo "I'm busy on the following days this week...\n\n";
foreach ($myCalendar->booked as $booked) {
echo $booked['date']->format('l'), ": ", $booked['note'], "\n";
}
?>
L'exemple ci-dessus va afficher :
I'm available on the following days this week... Tuesday Thursday I'm busy on the following days this week... Monday: Cleaning GoogleGuy's apartment. Wednesday: Going on a snowboarding trip. Friday: Fixing buggy code.
Notes
Note: Notez que cette fonction ne vérifie qu'une seule dimension d'un tableau multidimensionnel. Vous pouvez, bien sûr, tester une dimension particulière en utilisant par exemple array_udiff($array1[0], $array2[0], "data_compare_func");.

It is not stated, by this function also diffs array1 to itself, removing any duplicate values...
Re: "convoluted"
I think the point being made is that array_udiff() can be used not only for comparisons between homogenous arrays, as in your example (and definitely the most common need), but it can be used to compare heterogeneous arrays, too.
Consider:
<?php
function compr_1($a, $b) {
$aVal = is_array($a) ? $a['last_name'] : $a;
$bVal = is_array($b) ? $b['last_name'] : $b;
return strcasecmp($aVal, $bVal);
}
$aEmployees = array(
array('last_name' => 'Smith',
'first_name' => 'Joe',
'phone' => '555-1000'),
array('last_name' => 'Doe',
'first_name' => 'John',
'phone' => '555-2000'),
array('last_name' => 'Flagg',
'first_name' => 'Randall',
'phone' => '666-1000')
);
$aNames = array('Doe', 'Smith', 'Johnson');
$result = array_udiff($aEmployees, $aNames, "compr_1");
print_r($result);
?>
Allowing me to get the "employee" that's not in the name list:
Array ( [2] => Array ( [last_name] => Flagg [first_name] => Randall [phone] => 666-1000 ) )
Something interesting to note, is that the two arguments to the compare function don't correspond to array1 and array2. That's why there has to be logic in it to handle that either of the arguments might be pointing to the more complex employee array. (Found this out the hard way.)
I think the example given here using classes is convoluting things too much to demonstrate what this function does.
array_udiff() will walk through array_values($a) and array_values($b) and compare each value by using the passed in callback function.
To put it another way, array_udiff() compares $a[0] to $b[0], $b[1], $b[2], and $b[3] using the provided callback function. If the callback returns zero for any of the comparisons then $a[0] will not be in the returned array from array_udiff(). It then compares $a[1] to $b[0], $b[1], $b[2], and $b[3]. Then, finally, $a[2] to $b[0], $b[1], $b[2], and $b[3].
For example, compare_ids($a[0], $b[0]) === -5 while compare_ids($a[1], $b[1]) === 0. Therefore, $a[1] is not returned from array_udiff() since it is present in $b.
<?
$a = array(
array(
'id' => 10,
'name' => 'John',
'color' => 'red',
),
array(
'id' => 20,
'name' => 'Elise',
'color' => 'blue',
),
array(
'id' => 30,
'name' => 'Mark',
'color' => 'red',
),
);
$b = array(
array(
'id' => 15,
'name' => 'Nancy',
'color' => 'black',
),
array(
'id' => 20,
'name' => 'Elise',
'color' => 'blue',
),
array(
'id' => 30,
'name' => 'Mark',
'color' => 'red',
),
array(
'id' => 40,
'name' => 'John',
'color' => 'orange',
),
);
function compare_ids($a, $b)
{
return ($a['id'] - $b['id']);
}
function compare_names($a, $b)
{
return strcmp($a['name'], $b['name']);
}
$ret = array_udiff($a, $b, 'compare_ids');
var_dump($ret);
$ret = array_udiff($b, $a, 'compare_ids');
var_dump($ret);
$ret = array_udiff($a, $b, 'compare_names');
var_dump($ret);
?>
Which returns the following.
In the first return we see that $b has no entry in it with an id of 10.
<?
array(1) {
[0]=>
array(3) {
["id"]=>
int(10)
["name"]=>
string(4) "John"
["color"]=>
string(3) "red"
}
}
?>
In the second return we see that $a has no entry in it with an id of 15 or 40.
<?
array(2) {
[0]=>
array(3) {
["id"]=>
int(15)
["name"]=>
string(5) "Nancy"
["color"]=>
string(5) "black"
}
[3]=>
array(3) {
["id"]=>
int(40)
["name"]=>
string(4) "John"
["color"]=>
string(6) "orange"
}
}
?>
In third return we see that all names in $a are in $b (even though the entry in $b whose name is 'John' is different, the anonymous function is only comparing names).
<?
array(0) {
}
?>
Very easy way of achieving a case-insensitive version of array_diff (or indeed array_diff_assoc, array_intersect or any of these types of functions which have a similar function that takes a callback function as one of their parameters):
array_udiff($array1, $array2, 'strcasecmp');
This works because strcasecmp() compares two strings case-insensitively, as compared to the array_diff() which compares two strings by using the == operator, which is case-sensitive.
Note that php does the string conversion *before* sending the values to the callback function.
This functionality is now implemented in the PEAR package PHP_Compat.
