Search key in multidimensional array with 2 parameters

I have a multidimensional array and I would like to search with 2 parameters : city and zip.

My array : 

$result=array(2) { 
          [0]=> array(2) 
              { 
                  ["city"]=> string(9) "Paris" 
                  ["zip"]=> string(5) "75000" 
              } 
          [1]=> array(2) 
              {
                  ["city"]=> string(9) "Paris"
                  ["zip"]=> string(5) "75100" 
              }
          }

Ex : search the key value for city=paris and zip=75100

Key=1

An idea ?

Check this,

<?php

$result=array(
          array( "city"=> "Paris", "zip"=>"75000"),
          array( "city"=> "Paris", "zip"=>"75100")
    );



$searchCity = "Paris";
$searchZip = "75100";


foreach($result as $key=>$row){
    if($row['city'] == $searchCity && $row['zip'] == $searchZip){
        echo $key;
    }
}

?>

Use this function..

function find_key($city, $zip) {

    foreach($result as $key => $value) {
        if($value['city'] == $city && $value['zip'] == $zip) {
             return $key;
        }
    }

    return FALSE;
}

$key = find_key('paris','75100');
if($key) {
    echo 'Found at key:'.$key;
} else {
    echo 'Not Found';
}
