比较两个数组是否相等的正确方法是使用严格相等(===)，这是递归比较。现有的答案无法递归地对任意数组(具有任意深度和顺序的数组，包含顺序数组和关联数组的混合)进行排序，因此无法处理任意数组的比较。顺序数组是具有顺序键(0,1,2,3…)的关联数组，而关联数组没有顺序键。

要对这些任意数组排序，我们必须:

向下遍历没有更多子数组的叶节点 通过序列化顺序数组，然后排序它们(以消除必须使用自定义比较器的需要) 按键对关联数组排序

下面的代码实现了上述解决方案。欢迎对代码进行改进。

function recur_sort( &$array ) {
    foreach ( $array as &$value ) {
       if ( is_array( $value ) ) recur_sort( $value );
    }

    if ( is_sequential_array( $array ) ) {
        $array = array_map( function( $el ) { return json_encode( $el ); }, $array  );
        sort( $array, SORT_STRING );
        $array = array_map( function( $el ) { return json_decode( $el, true ); }, $array  );
        return;
    } else {
        return ksort( $array );
    }
}

function is_sequential_array(Array &$a) {
    $n = count($a);
    for($i=0; $i<$n; $i++) {
        if(!array_key_exists($i, $a)) {
            return false;
        }
    }
    return true;
}

示例(在PHPUnit中):

//A stricter and recursive assertEqualsCanonicalizing
public function assertSameCanonicalizing( $expected, $actual ) {
    recur_sort( $expected );
    recur_sort( $actual );
    $this->assertSame( $expected, $actual );
}

将它们与其他值进行比较:

if($array_a == $array_b) {
  //they are the same
}

你可以在这里阅读所有数组操作符: http://php.net/manual/en/language.operators.array.php 例如，请注意===还检查数组中元素的类型和顺序是否相同。

下面是如何比较数组并获得它们之间的不同之处的示例。

$array1 = ['1' => 'XXX', 'second' => [
            'a' => ['test' => '2'],
            'b' => 'test'
        ], 'b' => ['no test']];

        $array2 = [
            '1' => 'XX',
            'second' => [
                'a' => ['test' => '5', 'z' => 5],
                'b' => 'test'
            ],
            'test'
        ];


        function compareArrayValues($arrayOne, $arrayTwo, &$diff = [], $reversed = false)
        {
            foreach ($arrayOne as $key => $val) {
                if (!isset($arrayTwo[$key])) {
                    $diff[$key] = 'MISSING IN ' . ($reversed ? 'FIRST' : 'SECOND');
                } else if (is_array($val) && (json_encode($arrayOne[$key]) !== json_encode($arrayTwo[$key]))) {
                    compareArrayValues($arrayOne[$key], $arrayTwo[$key], $diff[$key], $reversed);
                } else if ($arrayOne[$key] !== $arrayTwo[$key]) {
                    $diff[$key] = 'DIFFERENT';
                }
            }
        }

        $diff = [];
        $diffSecond = [];

        compareArrayValues($array1, $array2, $diff);
        compareArrayValues($array2, $array1, $diffSecond, true);

        print_r($diff);
        print_r($diffSecond);

        print_r(array_merge($diff, $diffSecond));

结果:

Array
(
    [0] => DIFFERENT
    [second] => Array
        (
            [a] => Array
                (
                    [test] => DIFFERENT
                    [z] => MISSING IN FIRST
                )

        )

    [b] => MISSING IN SECOND
    [1] => DIFFERENT
    [2] => MISSING IN FIRST
)

下面的解决方案使用可作为回调传递的自定义相等函数。注意，它不检查数组的顺序。

trait AssertTrait
{
    /**
     * Determine if two arrays have the same elements, possibly in different orders. Elements comparison function must be passed as argument.
     *
     * @param array<mixed> $expected
     * @param array<mixed> $actual
     *
     * @throws InvalidArgumentException
     */
    public static function assertArraysContainSameElements(array $expected, array $actual, callable $comparisonFunction): void
    {
        Assert::assertEquals(\count($expected), \count($actual));

        self::assertEveryElementOfArrayIsInAnotherArrayTheSameAmountOfTimes($expected, $actual, $comparisonFunction);
        self::assertEveryElementOfArrayIsInAnotherArrayTheSameAmountOfTimes($actual, $expected, $comparisonFunction);
    }

    /**
     * @param array<mixed> $needles
     * @param array<mixed> $haystack
     *
     * @throws InvalidArgumentException
     */
    private static function assertEveryElementOfArrayIsInAnotherArrayTheSameAmountOfTimes(
        array $needles,
        array $haystack,
        callable $comparisonFunction
    ): void {
        Assert::assertLessThanOrEqual(\count($needles), \count($haystack));

        foreach ($needles as $expectedElement) {
            $matchesOfExpectedElementInExpected = \array_filter(
                $needles,
                static fn($element): bool => $comparisonFunction($expectedElement, $element),
            );

            $matchesOfExpectedElementInActual = \array_filter(
                $haystack,
                static fn($element): bool => $comparisonFunction($expectedElement, $element),
            );

            Assert::assertEquals(\count($matchesOfExpectedElementInExpected), \count($matchesOfExpectedElementInActual));
        }
    }
}

我通常在数据库集成测试中使用它，当我想确保返回预期的元素，但我不关心排序。

array_diff -计算数组的差值

http://php.net/manual/en/function.array-diff.php

数组$array1，数组$array2[，数组$…]) 将array1与一个或多个其他数组进行比较，并返回array1中没有出现在任何其他数组中的值。

function compareIsEqualArray(array $array1,array $array2):bool
{

   return (array_diff($array1,$array2)==[] && array_diff($array2,$array1)==[]);

}
