Count occurrences of a value in a column of an arr

问题:

Does anyone know how to count the occurrences of "photo" in this array:

    Array ( 
    [0] => stdClass Object ( [type] => photo [id] => 1404781893036 [created_time] => 2012-03-02T07:58:23+0000 ) 
    [1] => stdClass Object ( [type] => photo [id] => 14047818930362 [created_time] => 2012-03-01T14:58:53+0000 ) 
    [2] => stdClass Object ( [type] => status [id] => 1404781893036 [created_time] => 2012-03-01T09:49:40+0000 ) 
    [3] => stdClass Object ( [type] => status [id] => 14047818930362 [created_time] => 2012-03-01T09:36:04+0000 ) 
    [4] => stdClass Object ( [type] => photo [id] => 14047818930362 [created_time] => 2012-02-28T07:03:25+0000 ) 
    [5] => stdClass Object ( [type] => photo [id] => 1404781893036 [created_time] => 2012-02-27T09:15:34+0000 ) 
    [6] => stdClass Object ( [type] => photo [id] => 14047818930362 [created_time] => 2012-02-27T07:32:13+0000 ) 
    [7] => stdClass Object ( [type] => status [id] => 1404781893036 [created_time] => 2012-02-25T09:36:57+0000 )
    [8] => stdClass Object ( [type] => photo [id] => 1404781893036 [created_time] => 2012-02-23T08:46:43+0000 ) 
    [9] => stdClass Object ( [type] => status [id] => 1404781893036 [created_time] => 2012-02-22T21:04:30+0000 ) 
    [10] => stdClass Object ( [type] => status [id] => 1404781893036 [created_time] => 2012-02-21T20:38:27+0000 )
    [11] => stdClass Object ( [type] => photo [id] => 1404781893036 [created_time] => 2012-02-21T07:22:44+0000 ) 
    [12] => stdClass Object ( [type] => status [id] => 14047818930362 [created_time] => 2012-02-20T08:32:46+0000 ) 
    [13] => stdClass Object ( [type] => status [id] => 1404781893036 [created_time] => 2012-02-17T15:00:11+0000 ) )

回答1:

$count = 0;
foreach ($array as $item) {
  if ($item->type === 'photo') {
    $count++;
  }
}

回答2:

To count matching occurance of a string in multidimensional array you will need to iterate over each array element and match the string and increment the count. Similiarly @Dor has suggested

$count = 0;
foreach ($array as $item) {
  if ($item->type === 'photo') {
    $count++;
  }
}

If you want achieve same in single dimensional array then It's pretty straightforward. You can use array_count_values PHP array function as explained below.

<?php
   $array = array(1, "test", 1, "php", "test");
   print_r(array_count_values($array));
?>

The above example will output:

Array
(
    [1] => 2
    [test] => 2
    [php] => 1
)

I'd like to acknowledge that the method by Dor Shemer is (IMO) the most direct, clean, readable, and reliable method. I just want to offer a few alternatives for those who prefer to use functional programming ...array_reduce() is a close second for me. Finally, I want to pinpoint a small gotcha for methods that use array_count_values() -- please read on...

Battery of Methods: (Demo)

$photo_count=0;  // establish default value
foreach($array as $objects){
    if($objects->type==='photo') ++$photo_count;  // pre-increment
}
echo "foreach result = $photo_count";

echo "array_reduce = ",array_reduce($array,function($carry,$objects){return $carry+($objects->type==='photo'?1:0);},0);

echo "array_filter & count = ",sizeof(array_filter($array,function($objects){return $objects->type==='photo';}));

echo "array_column & array_filter & count = ",sizeof(array_filter(array_column($array,'type'),function($v){return $v==='photo';}));

echo "array_map & array_count_values & array_replace = ",array_replace(['photo'=>0],array_count_values(array_map(function($o) {return $o->type;}, $array)))['photo'];

echo "array_map & array_count_values (gives Notice) = ",array_count_values(array_map(function($o) {return $o->type;}, $array))['photo'];

Input/Output using OP's sample data (no trouble):

$array=[
    (object)['type'=>'photo','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-03-02T07:58:23+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'photo','id'=>14047818930362,'created_time'=>'2012-03-01T14:58:53+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-03-01T09:49:40+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>14047818930362,'created_time'=>'2012-03-01T09:36:04+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'photo','id'=>14047818930362,'created_time'=>'2012-02-28T07:03:25+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'photo','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-02-27T09:15:34+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'photo','id'=>14047818930362,'created_time'=>'2012-02-27T07:32:13+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-02-25T09:36:57+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'photo','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-02-23T08:46:43+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-02-22T21:04:30+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-02-21T20:38:27+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'photo','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-02-21T07:22:44+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>14047818930362,'created_time'=>'2012-02-20T08:32:46+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-02-17T15:00:11+0000']
];

// output:
foreach result = 7

array_reduce = 7

array_filter & count = 7

array_column & array_filter & count = 7

array_map & array_count_values & array_replace = 7

array_map & array_count_values = 7

Input/Output using data with no photo values (trouble with 2nd array_count_values() method):

$array=[
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-03-01T09:49:40+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>14047818930362,'created_time'=>'2012-03-01T09:36:04+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-02-25T09:36:57+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-02-22T21:04:30+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-02-21T20:38:27+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>14047818930362,'created_time'=>'2012-02-20T08:32:46+0000'],
    (object)['type'=>'status','id'=>1404781893036,'created_time'=>'2012-02-17T15:00:11+0000']
];
// or if there are no object rows like: $array=[];
// output:
foreach result = 0

array_reduce = 0

array_filter & count = 0

array_column & array_filter & count = 0

array_map & array_count_values & array_replace = 0

array_map & array_count_values (gives Notice) = <br />
<b>Notice</b>:  Undefined index: photo in <b>[...][...]</b> on line <b>43</b><br />

array_count_values() doesn't bother to generate elements with a 0 count.

回答4:

Try with:

$input = array( /* your data */ );
$count = 0;
foreach ( $input as $value ) {
  if ( $value->type == 'photo' ) {
    $count++;
  }
}
