How to merge these 2 arrays in PHP?

I have an array $array1 with different amount of key and value pairs:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [ID] => 39
            [title] => Apple
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [ID] => 40
            [title] => Orange
        )

)

and another array $array2:

Array
(
    [0] => 273
    [1] => 386

)

And I want to get this:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [ID] => 39
            [title] => Apple
            [pages] => 273
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [ID] => 40
            [title] => Orange
            [pages] => 386
        )

)

The number of items in each array is the same and the correspond, so, we don't need to check this, so, how to merge it like that?

Here is code that produce exactly output you are looking for :

<?php
    $list1 = array(array('id' => 39,'title' => 'Apple'),array('id' => 40,'title' => 'Orange'));
    $list2 = array(array('pages' => 273,'year' => 1981),array('pages' => 386,'year' => 1979));

    $newList = array();

    $i=0;
    foreach($list1 as $firstList){
        foreach($list2 as $secondList){
            $newList[$i] = array_merge($firstList, $secondList);
        }
    $i++;
    }

    echo"<pre>"; print_r($newList); echo"</pre>";

?>

OUTPUT :

If the sizes of the 2 arrays are same you could do something like this

$arr1 = array(
    array(
        'ID' => 39,
        'title' => 'Apple'
    ),
    array(
        'ID' => 40,
        'title' => 'Orange'
    )
);

$arr2 = array(
    273,
    386
);

$merged = array();

for ($i = 0; $i < count($arr1); $i++) {
    $merged[] = array_merge($arr1[$i], array('pages' => $arr2[$i]));
}

var_dump($merged);

or if you don't want a new array

for ($i = 0; $i < count($arr1); $i++) {
    $arr1[$i]['pages'] = $arr2[$i];
}

$output = array();
array_walk( $array1, function( $v, $k ) use ( $array2, &$output ) {
       $output[] = array_merge( $v, $array2[$k] );
    });

for($i=0; $i<count($array1); ++$i){
    $array1[$i]['pages'] = $array2[$i];
}
var_dump($array1);

use array_replace_recursive if you want merge with integer keys, or array_merge_recursive if you want merge only string keys

<?php

$a1 = array(
    0 => array
    (
        "ID" => 39,
        "title" => "Apple"
    ),

    1 => array(
        "ID" => 40,
        "title" => "Orange"
    )

);

$a2 = array(
    0 => array
    (
        "pages" => 273,
        "year" => 1981
    ),

    1 => array(
        "pages" => 386,
        "year" => 1979
    )

);

$a3 = array_replace_recursive($a1, $a2);

var_dump($a3);

Result:

array(2) {
  [0] =>
  array(4) {
    'ID' =>
    int(39)
    'title' =>
    string(5) "Apple"
    'pages' =>
    int(273)
    'year' =>
    int(1981)
  }
  [1] =>
  array(4) {
    'ID' =>
    int(40)
    'title' =>
    string(6) "Orange"
    'pages' =>
    int(386)
    'year' =>
    int(1979)
  }
}

Answer for updated question:

<?php

$a1 = array(
    0 => array
    (
        "ID" => 39,
        "title" => "Apple"
    ),

    1 => array(
        "ID" => 40,
        "title" => "Orange"
    )

);

$a2 = array(
    0 => 31,
    1 => 324
);

$defaultValue = 0;
foreach ($a1 as $key => $value) {
    $a1[$key]['pages'] = isset($a2[$key]) ? $a2[$key] : $defaultValue;
}
var_dump($a1);

Result:

array(2) {
  [0] =>
  array(3) {
    'ID' =>
    int(39)
    'title' =>
    string(5) "Apple"
    'pages' =>
    int(31)
  }
  [1] =>
  array(3) {
    'ID' =>
    int(40)
    'title' =>
    string(6) "Orange"
    'pages' =>
    int(324)
  }
}

Try this

array1[0][pages]=array2[0][pages];
array1[0][year]=array2[0][year];
array1[1][pages]=array2[1][pages];
array1[1][year]=array2[1][year];

Try this code :-

$newArray = array();
$i=0;
foreach($array1 as $value){
  $newArray[$i] = $value;
  $newArray[$i][] = $array2[$i];
  $i++;
}
