It is interesting to note that both the solutions above use extra storage in form of arrays  first one two of them and second one uses one array  and then you find min and max using  extra storage  array  While that may be acceptable in real programming world  who gives a two bit about  extra  storage   it would have got you a  C  in programming 101   The problem of finding min and max can easily be solved with just two extra memory slots    first   intval  input 0   Weight      min    first    max    first    foreach  input as  data         weight   intval  data  Weight          if  weight  lt    min              min     weight              if  weight  gt   max              max     weight             echo   min    min and max    max  n

Option 1  First you map the array to get those numbers  and not the full details     numbers   array column  array   weight     Then you get the min and max    min   min  numbers    max   max  numbers     Option 2   Only if you don t have PHP 5 5 or better  The same as option 1  but to pluck the values  use array map    numbers   array map function  details      return  details  Weight        array     Option 3   Option 4  If you only need a min OR max  array reduce   might be faster    min   array reduce  array  function  min   details      return min  min   details  weight        PHP INT MAX     This does more min  s  but they re very fast  The PHP INT MAX is to start with a high  and get lower and lower  You could do the same for  max  but you d start at 0  or -PHP INT MAX
