The array_intersect_key function simply compares the first array with the other array or arrays based on keys. It returns an associative array that only contains the result against matching keys.

If the key in the first array is found in the rest of the arrays, it is included in the resultant array.

Examples of array_intersect_key function

<?php
$a1=array("a"=>"red","b"=>"green","c"=>"blue");
$a2=array("a"=>"red","c"=>"blue","d"=>"pink");

$result=array_intersect_key($a1,$a2);
print_r($result);
?>

In the above example, the array_intersect function compares only the keys of two arrays and returns the matches.

<?php
$a1=array("red","green","blue","yellow");
$a2=array("red","green","blue");

$result=array_intersect_key($a1,$a2);
print_r($result);
?>

In the above example, we use the array_intersect_key function with an indexed array. The elements of each indexed array are now treated as the keys. Therefore, the function compares them with the second array and returns the matches.

<?php
$a1=array("a"=>"red","b"=>"green","c"=>"blue");
$a2=array("c"=>"yellow","d"=>"black","e"=>"brown");
$a3=array("f"=>"green","c"=>"purple","g"=>"red");

$result=array_intersect_key($a1,$a2,$a3);
print_r($result);
?>

In the above example, the array_intersect function compares only the keys of three arrays and returns the matches.
