Write a function that provides change directory (cd) function for an abstract file system.

path.php

<?php
class Path  {
    
public $currentPath;

    function __construct($path) {
        $this->currentPath = $path;
    } 

    public function cd($newPath) {
        $innerCounter = 0;
        $strOut= '';
        $newPath = explode('/',$newPath);
        $oldPath = explode('/', $this->currentPath);
        
        foreach($newPath as $str) {
            echo $str.'<P>';
            if($str == '..') $innerCounter++; 
        }
        
        $oldLength = count($oldPath);        
            for($i=0;$i<($oldLength - $innerCounter);$i++)
                $strOut .= $oldPath[$i]."/";
        
        $newLength = count($newPath);        
            for($i=0;$i<$newLength;$i++){
                if($newPath[$i] !='..'){
                    $strOut = $strOut.$newPath[$i].'';
                }
            } 
            
        $this->currentPath = $strOut;    
        return $this;  
    }

}

$path = new Path('/a/b/c/d');
echo $path->cd('../x')->currentPath;

I've done and passed all

you can try this one

public function cd($newPath)
    {
        $dir = explode('/', $this->currentPath);
        $cd  = explode('/', $newPath);
        $hitung = 0;
        foreach($cd as $key => $value){
            if($value == '..'){
                $hitung += 1;
                unset($cd[$key]);
            }
        }
        
        $hasil = '';
        for($i=0; $i<= (count($dir)-1-$hitung); $i++){
            $hasil .= $dir[$i].(($i == (count($dir)-1-$hitung)) ? '' : '/'); 
        }
        
        $tmp_cd = implode('/',$cd);
        $this->currentPath = $hasil.(strlen($tmp_cd)>0 ? '/'.$tmp_cd : '');

        return $this;
    }

First, hats off for getting 100%!

How/why does your cd function get 100% when a cd value of "/x/d" to a path of "/a/b/c/d" gives you "/a/b/c/d/x/d"? Shouldn't it be "/x/d" an absolute path? Also, your cd value excepts numbers and symbols which the notes say it shouldn't, yet you still get 100%.

All the tests I run locally work (go up dir, child, etc) but when I upload to testdome I only get 75%?

testdome.com - meh.

This is working for me kinda, taking like 4 try. What a noob

public function cd($newPath)
{
    $default_directory = explode('/', $this->currentPath);
    $cd_array_path = explode('/', $newPath); 

    // count parent directory occurrence
    $tracker = $this->countParentOccurrence($cd_array_path, $default_directory);   
    
    // unset parent based on cd & get current updated path
    $cur_array_path = $this->unsetCurrentDirectory($tracker, $default_directory);
    
    // rebuilt new path
    $path = $this->rebuilt($cur_array_path);
    
    // combine updated path with targeted cd path
    $new_path = $this->newPathAfterCD($cd_array_path, $path);
    
    return $this->currentPath = $new_path;
}

public function newPathAfterCD($cd_array_path, $path)
{
    foreach ($cd_array_path as $key => $value)
    {
        if ($value != '..')
        {
            $path = $path.'/'.$value;
        }
    }
    
    return $path;
}

public function rebuilt($cur_array_path)
{
    foreach ($cur_array_path as $key => $value)
    {
        $path .= empty($value) ? '/' : $value.'/';
    }
    
    $path = rtrim($path, '/');
    
    return $path;
}

public function unsetCurrentDirectory($tracker, $default_dir)
{
    foreach ($tracker as $key => $value)
    {
        unset($default_dir[$value]);
    }
    
    return $default_dir;
}

public function countParentOccurrence($cd_array, $default_dir)
{
    $count_parent_occurence = array_count_values($cd_array);
    $dd = count($default_dir); 

    for ($i = 1; $i <= $count_parent_occurence['..']; $i++)
    {
        $cd_trail[] = $dd-$i;
    }

    return $cd_trail;
}

`<?php

class Path
{
public $currentPath;

function __construct($path)
{
    $this->currentPath = $path;
}


public function cd(string $newPath)
{
    $hiearchy = explode('/', $this->currentPath);
    unset($hiearchy[0]);

    $addedHiearchy = explode('/', $newPath);

        } else {
            array_push($hiearchy, $value);

$path = new Path('/a/b/c/d');
$path->cd('../x');
echo $path->currentPath;`

Much shorter and simpler version without using for/foreach loop, and it Passed! :D

class Path
{
    public $currentPath;

    function __construct($path)
    {
        $this->currentPath = $path;
    }

    public function cd($newPath)
    {
	if ($this->isAbsolutePath($newPath)) {
	    $this->currentPath = $newPath;
	    return;
	}
		
        $currentPathLevelCount = substr_count($this->currentPath, '/');
        $parentLevelCount = substr_count($newPath, '..');
        
        $currentDirs = array_filter(explode('/', $this->currentPath));
	$newDirs = array_filter(explode('/', $newPath), function($value) {
		return !empty($value) && $value != '..';
	});
        
	$newPaths= array_slice($currentDirs, 0,  $parentLevelCount > $currentPathLevelCount ? 0 : $currentPathLevelCount - $parentLevelCount );
        array_push($newPaths, ...$newDirs);
        
	$this->currentPath = '/' . implode('/', $newPaths);
		
    }
    
    // For Unix
    public function isAbsolutePath($path)
    {
        return substr($path, 0, 1) == '/';
    }
}

$path = new Path('/a/b/c/d');
$path->cd('../x');
echo $path->currentPath;

`
class Path
{
public $currentPath;

function __construct($path)
{
    $this->currentPath = $path;
}

public function cd($newPath)
{
    $dirs = explode('/', $this->currentPath);
    $new_dirs = explode('/', $newPath);
    
    $new_path = [];
    
    foreach ($new_dirs as $new_dir) {
        if ($new_dir === '..') {
            array_pop($dirs);
        } else {
            $new_path[] = $new_dir;
        }
    }
            
    $new_path = array_merge($dirs, $new_path);

I think this might be an approved answer.
