Below programs illustrate the AppendIterator::getIteratorIndex() function in PHP:

Program 1:

$arr2 = new ArrayIterator(array("Computer", "Science", "Portal"));
  
// Create a new AppendIterator
$itr = new AppendIterator;
$itr->append($arr1);
$itr->append($arr2);
  
// Display the elements
foreach ($itr as $key => $val) {
    echo "Iterator Index: " . $itr->getIteratorIndex()
        . "  Key : " . $key . "  Value: " . $val . "\n"; 
}
  
?>


Output:

Iterator Index: 0  Key : 0  Value: Geeks
Iterator Index: 0  Key : 1  Value: for
Iterator Index: 0  Key : 2  Value: Geeks
Iterator Index: 1  Key : 0  Value: Computer
Iterator Index: 1  Key : 1  Value: Science
Iterator Index: 1  Key : 2  Value: Portal

Program 2:




<?php
  
// Declare an ArrayIterator
$arr1 = new ArrayIterator(
    array(

        "y" => "Science",
        "z" => "Portal"
    )
);
  
// Create a new AppendIterator
$itr = new AppendIterator;
$itr->append($arr1);
$itr->append($arr2);
  
// Display the elements
foreach ($itr as $key => $val) {
    echo "Iterator Index: " . $itr->getIteratorIndex()
        . "  Key : " . $key . "  Value: " . $val . "\n"; 
}
  
?>


Output:

Iterator Index: 0  Key : a  Value: Geeks
Iterator Index: 0  Key : b  Value: for
Iterator Index: 0  Key : c  Value: Geeks
Iterator Index: 1  Key : x  Value: Computer
Iterator Index: 1  Key : y  Value: Science
