Compare multidimensional arrays with array_diff [duplicate]

Question

I have 2 arrays then i want to filter them by email key. Like this

Array1

array (size=5)
  0 => 
     array (size=3)
        'name' => string 'Client 1' (length=8)
        'email' => string '[email protected]' (length=17)
  1 => 
     array (size=3)
        'name' => string 'Client 2' (length=8)
        'email' => string '[email protected]' (length=17)

Array2

array (size=3)
   0 => 
      array (size=4)
        'name' => string 'Client 3' (length=8)
        'email' => string '[email protected]' (length=17)
        'role_id' => float 3
   1 => 
      array (size=4)
        'name' => string 'Client 6' (length=8)
        'email' => string '[email protected]' (length=17)
        'role_id' => float 2
   2 => 
      array (size=4)
        'name' => string 'Client 7' (length=8)
        'email' => string '[email protected]' (length=17)
        'role_id' => float 3

I want to filter out the similar email items. How can result return like below:

array (size=2)
   0 => 
      array (size=4)
        'name' => string 'Client 6' (length=8)
        'email' => string '[email protected]' (length=17)
        'role_id' => float 2
   1 => 
      array (size=4)
        'name' => string 'Client 7' (length=8)
        'email' => string '[email protected]' (length=17)
        'role_id' => float 3

You could use array_udiff.

If will filter the first array, by comparing its elements to the elements of other arrays passed to array_udiff using the given callback. When the callback returns 0 for a pair, that element is removed from the result.

$result = array_udiff($arr2, $arr1, function ($a, $b) {
    return strcmp($a['email'], $b['email']);
});
