Remove an array element based on a key:

Use the unset function like below:

$a = array(
       'salam',
       '10',
       1
);

unset($a[1]);

print_r($a);

/*

    Output:

        Array
        (
            [0] => salam
            [2] => 1
        )

*/

Remove an array element based on value:

Use the array_search function to get an element key and use the above manner to remove an array element like below:

$a = array(
       'salam',
       '10',
       1
);

$key = array_search(10, $a);

if ($key !== false) {
    unset($a[$key]);
}

print_r($a);

/*

    Output:

        Array
        (
            [0] => salam
            [2] => 1
        )
