delete first array element

Question

I have an array structure like this:

$data=    Array
    (
        [1] => Array
            (
                [A] => BANK
                [B] => IFSC
                [C] => MICR
                [D] => BRANCH
                [E] => ADDRESS
                [F] => CONTACT
                [G] => CITY
                [H] => DISTRICT
                [I] => STATE
            )

        [2] => Array
            (
                [A] => ABHYUDAYA COOPERATIVE BANK LIMITED
                [B] => ABHY0065001
                [C] => 400065001
                [D] => RTGS-HO
                [E] => ABHYUDAYA BANK BLDG., B.NO.71, NEHRU NAGAR, KURLA (E), MUMBAI-400024
                [F] => 25260173
                [G] => MUMBAI
                [H] => GREATER MUMBAI
                [I] => MAHARASHTRA
            )

        [3] => Array
            (
                [A] => ABHYUDAYA COOPERATIVE BANK LIMITED
                [B] => ABHY0065002
                [C] => 400065002
                [D] => ABHYUDAYA NAGAR
                [E] => ABHYUDAYA EDUCATION SOCIETY, OPP. BLDG. NO. 18, ABHYUDAYA NAGAR, KALACHOWKY, MUMBAI - 400033
                [F] => 24702643
                [G] => MUMBAI
                [H] => GREATER MUMBAI
                [I] => MAHARASHTRA
            )
    )

I want to delete the first index,and reindex the array from 0.

I tried the following: $newData = array_splice($data,0,1);

but it gives the following output

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [A] => BANK
            [B] => IFSC
            [C] => MICR
            [D] => BRANCH
            [E] => ADDRESS
            [F] => CONTACT
            [G] => CITY
            [H] => DISTRICT
            [I] => STATE
        )

)

The Part of array that I want to remove is the one that stays and the remaining is deleted.

$newData = array_slice($data,1);

You can use array_slice($array, 1).

$result = array_slice($data, 1);
print_r($result);

You can use array_shift() for that. When using numerical keys, they are automatically reset so that is all you need:

$first = array_shift($data);
// or just: array_shift($data);
var_dump($data);

Why don't you use array_shift(). It Remove the first element from an array, and return the value of the removed element:

<?php
$a=array("a"=>"red","b"=>"green","c"=>"blue");
echo array_shift($a)."<br>";
print_r ($a);
?>

Output will be this

red
Array ( [b] => green [c] => blue )

Try this simple one.. hope this will help you out. Here we are using key function which will return first key, Here we are unsetting top index and returning array_values.

Try this code snippet here

unset($data[key($data)]);//unsetting the top index
$data=array_values($data);//returning array_values
print_r($data);

Output:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [A] => ABHYUDAYA COOPERATIVE BANK LIMITED
            [B] => ABHY0065001
            [C] => 400065001
            [D] => RTGS-HO
            [E] => ABHYUDAYA BANK BLDG., B.NO.71, NEHRU NAGAR, KURLA (E), MUMBAI-400024
            [F] => 25260173
            [G] => MUMBAI
            [H] => GREATER MUMBAI
            [I] => MAHARASHTRA
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [A] => ABHYUDAYA COOPERATIVE BANK LIMITED
            [B] => ABHY0065002
            [C] => 400065002
            [D] => ABHYUDAYA NAGAR
            [E] => ABHYUDAYA EDUCATION SOCIETY, OPP. BLDG. NO. 18, ABHYUDAYA NAGAR, KALACHOWKY, MUMBAI - 400033
            [F] => 24702643
            [G] => MUMBAI
            [H] => GREATER MUMBAI
            [I] => MAHARASHTRA
        )
