remove array elements with the given value from array

[searain]

if I have an array, $myarray, with the elements values like (1, 2, 3, 6, 8, 10).

I need a function applies to this $myarray to get rid of the element with certain value

such as

array_function_i_am_looking_for($myarray, 3) will return $myarray with the values (1, 2, 6, 8, 10).

I checked out the array function manual. The closest one is array_filter. And I just need to write a function to compare the value for array_filter.

Are there any other ways to do this job? Thanks!

There are alot of approaches to this...but it won't be as simple as just saying cut this element out.

Perhaps you might want to compare you array to the value you want to drop and then simply not use it if it equals the value:

$vars = array(1,2,3,4,5);

$value = 3;

foreach ($vars as $var) {

if ($value != $var) {

$new[] = $var;

}

}

Rather crude, but it would effectively delete the element you don't want...

Do you want all occurrences of the unwanted value to be removed (if there is more than one)?

array_diff($myarray, array(3))
