array_splice
To elaborate on djyb2003 at yahoo dot fr. His function can be converted to recursive, but i've made a smaller function to do so:
<?php
function array_sum_all($array) {
$func = create_function("&\$arr=0,\$key=0","static \$a=0; if(is_int(\$arr)) { \$a+=\$arr; } return \$a;");
array_walk_recursive($array,$func);
return $func();
}
$tab = array(
0 => array ("val1" => 2,"val2" => 5),
1 => array ("val1" => 6,"val2" => 10),
"toto" => array ("val1" => 15,"val2" => 50)
);
var_dump(array_sum_all($tab)); //This will output: int(88);
?>
hope this helps someone
array_sum
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.4, PHP 5)
array_sum — Calculate the sum of values in an array
Parameters
- array
-
The input array.
Return Values
Returns the sum of values as an integer or float.
ChangeLog
| Version | Description |
|---|---|
| 4.2.1 | PHP versions prior to 4.2.1 modified the passed array itself and converted strings to numbers (which most of the time converted them to zero, depending on their value). |
Examples
Example #1 array_sum() examples
<?php
$a = array(2, 4, 6, 8);
echo "sum(a) = " . array_sum($a) . "\n";
$b = array("a" => 1.2, "b" => 2.3, "c" => 3.4);
echo "sum(b) = " . array_sum($b) . "\n";
?>
The above example will output:
sum(a) = 20 sum(b) = 6.9

here is a function that can sum values like these :
$tab = array(
0 => array ("val1" => 2,"val2" => 5)
1 => array ("val1" => 6,"val2" => 10)
"toto" => array ("val1" => 15,"val2" => 50)
);
sum_subarrays_by_key( $tab, "val1" );
the function will sum all values with "val1" key in tab subarrays.
function sum_subarrays_by_key( $tab, $key ) {
$sum = 0;
foreach($tab as $sub_array) {
$sum += $sub_array[$key];
}
return $sum;
}
it can be transformed to be recursive and do also all depths possible in an array.
Hope it can be usefull!

A much simpler algorithm for array_sub():
<?php
function array_sub($arr) {
if (!is_array($arr) || count($arr) == 0) {
return false;
} else {
// get first element
$base = array_shift($arr);
return $base - array_sum($arr);
}
}
?>
This will return the exact same results that didikdwi's version.
However, didikdwi's result depends on knowing what the first value is. When this likely bug is removed, the code is:
<?php
function array_sub($arr){
$temp = array_sum($arr);
return ( $temp !== false ? -$temp : false );
}
?>

This is a simple approach to subtract array, both indexed and associative.
function array_sub($arr) {
if (!is_array($arr) || count($arr) == 0) {
return false;
} else {
// get first element
$base = array_shift($arr);
if (count($arr) == 1) {
// If only one element, return its
return $base;
}
foreach ($arr as $val) {
$base -= $val;
}
return $base;
}
}
// example
$arr1 = array(3, 2, 3);
echo array_sub($arr1); // Output: -2
$arr2 = array(3.5, 2, 3);
echo array_sub($arr2); // Output: -1.5
$arr3 = array('a' => 3, 'b' => 2, 'c' => 3);
echo array_sub($arr3); // Output: -2

I'm not sure if something similar already exists, but I needed it so I made it:
<?php
/* Performs a pitagoric sum of the elements in $arr
The pitagoric sum of a set of values is the square root of
the sum of the sqare power of each value. So, for a, b, c
it's sqrt(a^2 + b^2 + c^2) */
/* If any element of $arr is an array itself, the array_sum
will be used. Alternatively, the values could be used by
recursion. Returns the integer part (floor) */
function array_pitag_sum($arr) {
if(is_array($arr) {
$ret = 0;
foreach($arr as $i) {
if(is_array($i)) {
$s = array_sum($i);
$ret += $s*$s;
} else {
$ret += $i*$i;
}
}
return floor(sqrt($ret));
} else {
return $arr;
}
}
?>

In reference to KageKonjou's array_mode function...
If you only want to know the value in the array that occurs most (and not the number of times it actually occured), you can use this short function. It also suffers from the same problem in that if there is more than one mode, it will return only one.
<?php
function array_mode($array)
{
if(!is_array($array)) return false;
asort(array_count_values($array));
return array_pop($array);
}
?>

A simple example for numeric values :
<?PHP
function array_average($arr){
$sum = array_sum($arr);
$num = sizeof($arr);
echo $sum/$num;
}
$myarray = array(1,2,3,4);
array_average($myarray); // displays 2.5 as average of 1,2,3,4
?>

function array_avg(&$array)
{
//**
returns the average value of all array-values
or false if no values in array (or not an array)
**//
if (!is_array($array) || count($array)==0)
return false;
else
return array_sum($array)/count($array);
} // array_avg()
Please add this function to PHP.

I ran into a situation where I only wanted to sum elements of an array for certain keys. For that, I wrote this function
<?
function array_sum_by_key()
{
$args = func_get_args();
$arr = array_shift($args);
$to_sum = is_array($args[0]) ? $args[0] : $args;
$sum = 0;
foreach ( $arr as $k=>$v ) {
if ( in_array($k, $to_sum) ) {
$sum += $v;
}
}
return $sum;
}
$arr = array (
'dog' => 1,
'cat' => 2,
'rat' => 4,
'mat' => 8,
'bat' => 16
);
echo array_sum_by_key($arr, 'dog', 'mat');
// Result: 9
?>
Alternatively, you can pass the keys to sum as an array
<?
$to_sum = array('dog', 'bat');
echo array_sum_by_key($arr, $to_sum);
// Result: 17
?>

Not sure where else to put this, but I added something that determines the most commonly occuring item in an array. Known Bugs: It will always return the first value if no mode are found, and the first mode found if more are found of same or lesser count.
<?php
function array_mode($array) {
$count = array();
foreach ($array as $item) {
$count[$item]++;
}
$mostcommon = "";
$iter = 0;
foreach ($count as $k => $v) {
if ($v > $iter) {
$mostcommon = $k;
$iter = $v;
}
}
return array("mode" => $mostcommon, "count" => $count[$mostcommon]);
}
?>

Here's a function to return the sum of a portion of an array:
function array_partial_sum($array, $start, $length){
$new_array = array_slice($array, $start, $length);
return array_sum($new_array);
}
$array = array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);
print array_partial_sum($array, 0, 3); // prints 6

For clarity, array indices containing boolean values such as TRUE and FALSE are added up as though they are 1 and 0 respectively.

If you want to find the AVERAGE of the values in your array, use the sum and count functions together. For example, let's say your array is $foo and you want the average...
<?php
$average_of_foo = array_sum($foo) / count($foo);
?>

Hi people, if someone is searching a function that works also with multimension array, i suggest this :
<?php
function cw_array_count($a) {
if(!is_array($a)) return $a;
foreach($a as $key=>$value)
$totale += cw_array_count($value);
return $totale;
}
$a[0][E][PS][P][a1]=1;
$a[0][E][PS][P][a2]=2;
$a[0][E][PJ][P][a2]=2;
$a[1][E][PS][E][a3]=3;
echo cw_array_count($a[0]);
// or
echo cw_array_count($a[0][E]);
?>
Bye, Bye.

If some array elements arent integers, function will change them to integers (content of array will not change) type and then sum them.
Example:
<?php
$foo[] = "12";
$foo[] = 10;
$foo[] = "bar";
$foo[] = "summer";
echo array_sum ($foo); //same as echo "22";
?>
