Search in array, like select?

Question

My array with countries is:

$cars = array(
    [\'brand\' => \'bmw\', \'place_1\' => \'Munich\', \'place_2\' => \'Cologne\'],
    [\'brand\' => \'vw\         


        

Answer 1

Use your brands as array keys instead of using numeric array indexes.

Something like this

$cars = [
  'bmw' => ['place_1' => 'Munich', 'place_2' => 'Cologne'],
  'vw' => ['brand' => 'vw', 'place_1' => 'Berlin', 'place_2' => 'Kopenhagen'],
  'hyndai' => ['brand' => 'hyndai', 'place_1' => 'Miami', 'place_2' => 'Newyork'],
];

Then you can access the variables like you want to: $cars['bmw']['place_1']

P.S : "hyndai" is probably a typo - it's spelled Hyundai
