Get a specific column value from multi array

Question

How to fetch a multi array branch? For example, I have following array:

$newarr= Array ( 
  "Tommy" => Array ( Array ( "a" => 25, "b" => 304, "c" => 9277 ), 
     Array ( "a" => 25, "b" => 4, "c" => 23 ) 
  ) ,
  "Garry" => Array ( Array ( "a" => 23, "b" => 285, "c" => 8678 ) ,
     Array ( "a" => 23, "b" => 9, "c" => 4 ) 
  )
) ;

How to use foreach to call [Tommy][1] and [Garry][1] only?

I tried the below code.

foreach ($person as $name => $choice?[1]?)
  { 
    foreach ($choice?[1]? as $value)
        { 
           echo "<div class='col-md-6'><br>"; 
           echo $name. "<br>"; 
           echo $value?[1]?["a"]."tries <br>";
           echo $value?[1]?["b"]."times <br>"; 
           echo $value?[1]?["c"]."count <br></div>";
        }
  }

I need output as follows:

Tommy
25
304
9277

Garry
23
285
8678

Thanks

foreach ($person as $name => $choice?[1]?) { foreach ($choice?[1]? as $value) { echo "<div class='col-md-6'><br>"; echo $name. "<br>"; echo $value?[1]?["a"]."tries <br>"; echo $value?[1]?["b"]."times <br>"; echo $value?[1]?["c"]."count <br></div>";} } — GR Vitaly

Simply use foreach like as

$result = [];
foreach($array as $key => $value){
   $result[$key] = $value[1];
}

Edited

$result = [];
foreach($newarr as $key => $value){
   echo "$key<br>";
     foreach($value[1] as $v){
        echo "$v<br>";
     }
}

Check this. I think then you can simply use as per your requirement

You need to use foreach loop for this.

$required = array();
foreach ($arr as $elem) {
  $required[] = $elem[1];
}

Explanation:

You can use foreach to loop over an array.

You can use either key value pair or just values if needed.

In your case, you need elements from second level sub array.

so, use foreach to get key 1

Could you please review my question, I understood that I can use foreach, not sure how to specify location.

Just try with array_map

$result = array_map(function($item) {
  return $item[1];
}, $inputArray);
