PHP : How to get common values from different array? [duplicate]

Question

I have two arrays as follows:-

$a = ["2","11","6"];
$b = ["6","7"];
$c = array_diff($a, $b);

$c = ["2","11"];

The result in $c is wrong. I want the result should be as $c = [6]

in other words i want the common elements in both array be returned! but it is giving wrong error. Kindly help me?

Your title says you're looking for the difference, you're using the function to get the difference... but you want the ones that aren't different? O_o — Jonnix

Use array_intersect()

$a = ["2","11","6"];
$b = ["6","7"];
$c = array_intersect($a, $b);
