Is there a function to extract a 'column' from an array in PHP?

Question

I have an array of arrays, with the following structure :

array(array(\'page\' => \'page1\', \'name\' => \'pagename1\')
      array(\'page\' => \'pa

As of PHP 5.5 you can use array_column():

 'page1', 'name' => 'pagename1'),
            array('page' => 'page2', 'name' => 'pagename2'),
            array('page' => 'page3', 'name' => 'pagename3')
            );
$names = array_column($samples, 'name');
print_r($names);
