        )

Now I want to add a new key-value pair named [count] => '$some_value' in this array in every element after the key-value pair [test_pack_purchase_date](say after [test_pack_purchase_date] => 255. How should I do this? Can anyone help me in this regard? Thanks in advance.

This question is related to php arrays multidimensional-array associative-array

The answer is


Try this:

foreach($array as $k => $obj) { 
    $obj->{'newKey'} = "value"; 
}

To add:

$arr["key"] = "value";

Then simply return $arr

Can't return directly like this way return $arr["key"] = "value";


foreach($test_package_data as $key=>$data ) {

   $category_detail_arr = $test_package_data[$key]['category_detail'];

   foreach( $category_detail_arr as $i=>$value ) {
     $test_package_data[$key]['category_detail'][$i]['count'] = $some_value;////<----Here
   }

}
