How to sum all column values in multi-dimensional array?

Question

How can I add all the columnar values by associative key? Note that key sets are dynamic.

Input array:

Arr         


        

Answer 1

Go through each item of the array and sum values to previous values if they exist, if not just assign the value.

1,
        'b'=>1,
        'c'=>1,
    ],
    [
        'a'=>2,
        'b'=>2,
    ],
    [
        'a'=>3,
        'd'=>3,
    ]
];

$result = array_reduce($array, function($carry, $item) {
    foreach($item as $k => $v)
        $carry[$k] = $v + ($carry[$k] ?? 0);

    return $carry;
}, []);

print_r($result);

Output:

Array
(
    [a] => 6
    [b] => 3
    [c] => 1
    [d] => 3
)

Or just loop through each sub array, and group the values for each column. Eventually summing them:

foreach($array as $subarray)
    foreach($subarray as $key => $value)
        $grouped[$key][] = $value;

$sums = array_map('array_sum', $grouped);
