How to “flatten” a multi-dimensional array to simple one in PHP?

Question

It\'s probably beginner question but I\'m going through documentation for longer time already and I can\'t find any solution. I thought I could use implode for each dimensio

Answer 1

If you specifically have an array of arrays that doesn't go further than one level deep (a use case I find common) you can get away with array_merge and the splat operator.

Output:

array(4) {
  [0]=>
  int(1)
  [1]=>
  int(2)
  [2]=>
  int(3)
  [3]=>
  int(4)
}

The splat operator effectively changes the array of arrays to a list of arrays as arguments for array_merge.
