How to match particular (switched) records in array

Recommended Posts

array ( 0 => array ( 'c0' => '6/111', 'c1' => '6/114', 'cnt' => '1', ), 1 => array ( 'c0' => '6/114', 'c1' => '6/111', 'cnt' => '1', ), 2 => array ( 'c0' => '6/145', 'c1' => '6/116', 'cnt' => '1', ), )

 

I want to "match" as on example code

0 => array ( 'c0' => '6/111', 'c1' => '6/114', 'cnt' => '1', ),

1 => array ( 'c0' => '6/114', 'c1' => '6/111', 'cnt' => '1', ),

 

c0 & c1, to get (and the array to be reseted)

 

0 => array ( 'c0' => '6/111', 'c1' => '6/114', 'cnt' => '2', ),

1 => array ( 'c0' => '6/145', 'c1' => '6/116', 'cnt' => '1', ), )

 

how to do it? I think that on only SQL it's impossible to do that ("switch"), furthermore I think that the code above would be useful

 

/*
$_c1 = @array_merge($_c1,$_c1x); if(!empty($_c0)) {
					foreach($_c1 as $value) {
						if(!isset($c1x[$value['id']])) {
							$c1x[$value['id']] = $value;
							$c1x[$value['id']]['cnt'] = 0;
						} $c1x[$value['id']]['cnt']++;
					} $this->tpl->assign('c1x',$c1x);
				} */

 

please help mi, thank you very much

So you want to match entries where c0 and c1 are switched?  It can be done in SQL, but it's a bit tricky.  It's a bit tricky in php as well.

 

In SQL you could do something like this:

 

SELECT
  (CASE WHEN c0 > c1 THEN c0 ELSE c1 END) AS c0
, (CASE WHEN c0 > c1 THEN c1 ELSE c0 END) AS c1
, COUNT(*) AS cnt
FROM table
GROUP BY c0, c1

 

What this does is it switches c0 and c1 if c0 > c1, but leaves them unswitched if c0 == c1 or c0 < c1.  The end result will have all the c0 and c1 in the same order.  Then "GROUP BY" can aggregate the results without worrying about switching.
