Use php array_map in classes

PHP array_map function can be used to map an array with class methods.

Here is an example:

<?php

class Form{

 public function sanitizeData()
 {
 $data = [
 ' this is a text with extra spaces ',
 'and <strong>this</strong> has too<br>much tags'
 ];
 return array_map(array($this, 'sanitize'), $data);
 }

 private function sanitize($value)
 {
 return strip_tags(trim($value));
 }
}

$form = new Form();

var_dump($form->sanitizeData());

#php

#method

#class

#array_map
