Question

I have this array:

array (size=3)
  0 => 
    array (size=2)
      'name' => string 'XML' (length=3)
      'processer' => string 'XMLp' (length=12)
  1 => 
    array (size=2)
      'name' => string 'XML2' (length=3)
      'processer' => string 'XML2pr' (length=12)
  2 => 
    array (size=2)
      'name' => string 'CSV' (length=3)
      'processer' => string 'CSVp' (length=12)

Since I dont need all of this, I wasnt this array converted:

$a = array ('XML', 'XML2', 'CSV');

so get by ‘name’. How to do this elegantly in php?

Answer 1

$source = array( 
    0 => array ( 
        'name' =>'A',
        'processer' => 'XMLf'),
    1 => array (
            'name' =>'B',
            'processer' => 'XMLp'),
    2 => array (
            'name' =>'C',
            'processer' => 'XMLp')
);

$output = array_map(function ($value) {
    return $value['name'];
}, $source);

print_r($output);
