Alternate to array_column()

Question

I have used array_column() in a project, and after uploading I found out that only PHP 5.5 or above support this function, and I think the hosting I use don\'t

Answer 1

You can always use another implementation of function array_column

if (!function_exists('array_column')) {
    function array_column(array $array, $columnKey, $indexKey = null)
    {
        $result = array();
        foreach ($array as $subArray) {
            if (!is_array($subArray)) {
                continue;
            } elseif (is_null($indexKey) && array_key_exists($columnKey, $subArray)) {
                $result[] = $subArray[$columnKey];
            } elseif (array_key_exists($indexKey, $subArray)) {
                if (is_null($columnKey)) {
                    $result[$subArray[$indexKey]] = $subArray;
                } elseif (array_key_exists($columnKey, $subArray)) {
                    $result[$subArray[$indexKey]] = $subArray[$columnKey];
                }
            }
        }
        return $result;
    }
}
