Using the square bracket syntax, you can access any element within a multidimensional array.
Here are some examples (these work on the $myBooks array just shown):
<?php $myBooks = array( array( "title"=> "Java", "author"=> "John A", "pubYear"=> 2018 ),/*from w w w.j a v a 2s .c om*/ array( "title"=> "Database", "author"=> "Franz B", "pubYear"=> 2017 ), array( "title"=> "Json", "author"=> "Oracle", "pubYear"=> 2018 ), array( "title"=> "MySQL", "author"=> "Charles D", "pubYear"=> 1859 ), ); print_r($myBooks[1]); echo"\n". $myBooks[1]["title"]."\n"; echo $myBooks[3]["pubYear"]."\n"; ?>
