Array Mapping in PHP

You can transform the values of an array using the array_map() function, which applies a callback function to each element of the array.

Example of Array Mapping

<?php
$numbers = array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5);

// Square each number
$squared_numbers = array_map(function($number) {
    return $number * $number;
}, $numbers);
print_r($squared_numbers);
?>

Output:

Array
(
    [0] => 1
    [1] => 4
    [2] => 9
    [3] => 16
    [4] => 25
)

Explanation: This example demonstrates how to use array_map() to square each element in an array.
