How to Append One Array to Another in PHP?

In this tutorial, we are going to teach you how to append one array to another in PHP?.

Example 1:

In this example, we are using array_merge function. The array_merge() function merges one or more arrays into one array.

<?php   
    
    $fruits = array("Apple","Orange","Banana","Peaches");
    $fruits1 = array("Mangoes","Apricots");

    echo "This is a array one : ";

    foreach ($fruits as $value) 
    {
        echo $value.",";    
    }

    
    echo "<br><br>";

    echo "This is a second array : ";

    foreach ($fruits1 as  $value) 
    {
        echo $value.",";    
    }

    echo "<br><br>";        

    $fruits2 = (array_merge($fruits,$fruits1));
    echo "After the second array append is array one :";
    
    foreach ($fruits2 as $value) 
    {
        echo $value.",";            
    } 

?>

Output:

This is a array one : Apple,Orange,Banana,Peaches,

This is a second array : Mangoes,Apricots,

After the second array append is array one :Apple,Orange,Banana,Peaches,Mangoes,Apricots,

Example 2:

In this example, we are using array_push function. The array_push() function inserts one or more elements to the end of an array.

<?php   
    
    $fruits = array("Apple","Orange","Banana","Peaches");
    $fruits1 = array("Mangoes","Apricots");

    echo "This is a array one : ";

    foreach ($fruits as $value) 
    {
        echo $value.",";    
    }

    
    echo "<br><br>";

    echo "This is a second array : ";

    foreach ($fruits1 as  $value) 
    {
        echo $value.",";    
    }

    echo "<br><br>";

    array_push($fruits , ...$fruits1); 

    echo "After append second array in  to array one :";

    foreach ($fruits as $x)
    {
        echo "<b>".$x."</b>".",";
    }

?>

Output:

This is a array one : Apple,Orange,Banana,Peaches,

This is a second array : Mangoes,Apricots,

After append second array in to array one :Apple,Orange,Banana,Peaches,Mangoes,Apricots,
