I want to know that is there a way to insert certain elements of an array into a new array. I mean I have an array containing 10 objects. Each object has 3 or four fields for example id, name , age , username. now I want to insert the id's of all the objects into the new array with a single call.Is there anyway to do that.
$array = [
[0] => [
id =>
name =>
],
[1] = > [
id =>
name =>
]
]
and so on now I want to insert all the id's of all the object into a new array with a single call. Is there a way to do that?

You can use array_column.
$arr = [ ['id' => 1, 'username' => 'a'], ['id' => 2, 'username' => 'b'] ];
$ids = array_column($arr, 'id')
$ids == [1, 2]

You could use array_walk which could be considered a "single call"
$array = array(0 => array('id', 'name', 'age'), 1 => array('id', 'name', 'age'));
array_walk($array, function($item, $key) {
// $key is 0 or 1
// $item is either id, name, age
});

Use array_map() function.
Here is your solution:-
$ids = array_map( function( $arr ){
return $arr["id"];
}, $arr );
echo '<pre>'; print_r($ids);

A basic foreach loop will do the job just fine
$firstArray = array(
array(
'id' => 1,
'name' => 'abc'
),
array(
'id' => 2,
'name' => 'def'
),
array(
'id' => 3,
'name' => 'gh'
)
);
$onlyIds = array();
$onlyKeys = array();
//To get the array value 'id'
foreach($firstArray as $value){
$onlyIds[] = $value['id'];
}
//To get the array keys
foreach($firstArray as $key => $value){
$onlyKeys[] = $key;
}
