# merge()
The merge method merges the given object into the original collection. If a key in the given object matches a key in the original collection, the given objects value will overwrite the value in the original collection:
const collection = collect({
id: 1,
price: 29,
});
const merged = collection.merge({
price: 400,
discount: false,
});
merged.all();
// { id: 1, price: 400, discount: false }
If our collection is an array, the values will be appended to the end of the collection:
const collection = collect(['Unicorn', 'Rainbow']);
const merged = collection.merge(['Sunshine', 'Rainbow']);
merged.all();
// ['Unicorn', 'Rainbow', 'Sunshine', 'Rainbow']
