    public function createAdminTask($key, $val)

    {

            $request_body = [

                "order_number" => $val,

                "order_id" => null,

                "prescription_id" => null,

                "payer_id" => null,

                "card_id" => null,

                "prescription_key" => null,

            ];



            dd($val,$request_body); }

I have this function with parameter ($key,$var) when I return or dd the $request_body the value of "order_number" be null but the $var value returned\printed correctly here is the dd result

"Y81383124932"



array:9 [▼

  "order_number" => null

  "order_id" => null

  "prescription_id" => null

  "payer_id" => null

  "card_id" => null

  "prescription_key" => null

]

but when changing "order_number" position in the above code like this

            $request_body = [

                "order_id" => null,

                "prescription_id" => null,

                "payer_id" => null,

                "card_id" => null,

                "prescription_key" => null,

                "order_number" => $val,

            ];

the array act as normal and order_number be set with its value here is dd

"Y81383124932"

array:9 [▼

  "order_id" => null

  "order_number" => "Y81383124932"

  "prescription_id" => null

  "payer_id" => null

  "card_id" => null

  "prescription_key" => null

]

So why this could happen, is there a cached value or something the PHP used to assign the variable to the array?

My Answer:
$key => $val, // Assigning the value of the $val variable to the key in the array
'status' => null, // Assigning a null value to the 'status' key in the array
'created_at' => now(), // Assigning the current timestamp to the 'created_at' key in the array
];_ // Code to create the admin task using the $request_body array
