The PHP array_diff_uassoc() function compares the keys/values of two or more arrays, and returns an array of entries from array1 not in the other array(s).
This function uses a user-defined function to compare the keys and values.
Both the keys and values are compared. Both must be a match.
<?php
function my_function($a, $b) {
if ($a === $b) {
return 0;
}
return ($a > $b)?1:-1;
}
$a1 = array('Car 1' => 'Lamborghini', 'Car 2' => 'Ferrari', 'Car 5' => 'Maserati');
$a2 = array('Car 1' => 'Lamborghini', 'Car 2' => 'Ferrari', 'Car 3' => 'Maserati');
$result = array_diff_uassoc($a1, $a2, 'my_function');
print_r($result);
?>
Output
Array ( [Car 5] => Maserati )
Syntax

PHP NOTES:
- When using PHP, single or double quotation marks are acceptable and work identically to one another; choose whichever you prefer, and stay consistent
- Arrays count starting from zero NOT one; so item 1 is position [0], item 2 is position [1], and item 3 is position [2] … and so on
