array_walk_recursive

(PHP 5, PHP 7)
Apply a user function recursively to every member of an array
bool array_walk_recursive ( array &$array, callable $callback [, mixed $userdata = NULL ] )

Applies the user-defined callback function to each element of the array. This function will recurse into deeper arrays.

Parameters:
array

The input array.

callback

Typically, callback takes on two parameters. The array parameter's value being the first, and the key/index second.

Note:

If callback needs to be working with the actual values of the array, specify the first parameter of callback as a reference. Then, any changes made to those elements will be made in the original array itself.

userdata

If the optional userdata parameter is supplied, it will be passed as the third parameter to the callback.

Returns:

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

Examples:
array_walk_recursive() example
<?php
$sweet = array('a' => 'apple', 'b' => 'banana');
$fruits = array('sweet' => $sweet, 'sour' => 'lemon');

function test_print($item, $key)
{
    echo "$key holds $item\n";
}

array_walk_recursive($fruits, 'test_print');
?>

The above example will output:

a holds apple
b holds banana
sour holds lemon

You may notice that the key 'sweet' is never displayed. Any key that holds an array will not be passed to the function.
