Parameters

This function has four parameters:

array1 – is the first text array.

array2 – is the first second array.

separator – is the separator character for both arrays (both must use the same separator character). This should be a single character.

Description

arraymerge("1,2,3","red,green,blue,orange,black",",",":") ☞ 1:red,2:green,3:blue,:orange,:black"
arraymerge("1,2,3,4,5,6","Gold,Silver,Bronze",",",". ") ☞ 1. Gold,2. Silver,3. Bronze,4. ,5. ,6. "
arraymerge("1,2,3","A,B,C",",","") ☞ 1A,2B,3C
