Hey guys I am trying to solve this type of a problem in PHP

<?php



class ArraySearch {



    public function __construct(array $array, string $item)

    {

        $this->array = $array;

        $this->item = $item;

        $this->count = 0;

    }



    public function findItems()

    {

        array_walk_recursive($this->array, 'ArraySearch::countItems');

        echo "{$this->item} was found {$this->count} times.".PHP_EOL;

    }



    public function countItems(&$value)

    {

        if ($value === $this->item) {

            $this->count++;

        }

    }

}



$arr = [

    "apple",

    ["banana", "strawberry", "apple"]

];



$obj = new ArraySearch($arr, "apple");

$obj->findItems();
