Example #1 array_intersect() example
<?php$array1 = array("a" => "green", "red", "blue");$array2 = array("b" => "green", "yellow", "red");$result = array_intersect($array1, $array2);print_r($result);?>
The above example will output:
Array ( [a] => green [0] => red )
Note: Two elements are considered equal if and only if (string) $elem1 === (string) $elem2. In words: when the string representation is the same.
