I thinik you will have to write your own function:
<?php function max_with_key($array, $key) { if (!is_array($array) || count($array) == 0) return false; $max = $array[0][$key]; foreach($array as $a) { if($a[$key] > $max) { $max = $a[$key]; } } return $max; } $dataPoints = array( array('x' => 2343, 'y' => 4322), array('x' => 103, 'y' => 303 ), array('x' => 2345,'y' => 2321 ), array('x' => 310, 'y' => 2044 ), array('x' => 173, 'y' => 793 ), array('x' => 456, 'y' => 2675), array('x' => 24, 'y' => 819 )); $max_x = max_with_key($dataPoints, 'x'); //2343 $max_y = max_with_key($dataPoints, 'y'); //4322 ?>
