note 54115 added to function.array-slice

Nice one liner to extract a column from a 2D array. It works by using array_slice on every row, through array_map. <?php // set up a small test environment $test_subject[] = array("a", "b", "c"); $test_subject[] = array("d", "e", "f"); $column=1; // do the actual work $result = array_map('array_slice', $test_subject, array_fill(0, count($test_subject), $column), array_fill(0, count($test_subject), 1) ); // and the end result result == array ( array("b"), array("e") ); ?> ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.array-slice.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+54115 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54115&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54115&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54115&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54115&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: non-english -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54115&report=yes&reason=non-english Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+54115&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+54115&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
