I have an input which is array

<input type="text" name="review_rate[]" value="{{$rinfo->review_rate}}" class="form-control text-center pay_review_scale_{{$cnts}}">

Now this input is not mandatory so when user doesnt add any value in first row and adds value in second row then it shows only 1 value in controller array

$review_rate= $request->review_rate;
echo "<pre>";
print_r($review_rate);exit; // this shows only second row value when first row value is blank

It shows values like this

Array
(
[0] => etgddddg
)

I want to show blank value also like below

Array
(
[0] => null
[1] => etgddddg
)

Any Suggestions?

There could be solution putting index into the name of input like this:

<input type="text" name="review_rate[0]" value="" class="form-control text-center pay_review_scale_{{$cnts}}">

<input type="text" name="review_rate[1]" value="{{$rinfo->review_rate}}" class="form-control text-center pay_review_scale_{{$cnts}}">

Then your key is saved so you can get array like

Array
(
[0] => null,
[1] => etgddddg
)

empty($review_rate[0]) //returns true
empty($review_rate[1]) //returns false

Then you can easily deduce that first one is empty.
