How can PHP arrays be effectively utilized to store and retrieve news data in a content management system?

To store and retrieve news data in a content management system using PHP arrays, you can create an array to hold the news articles with each article represented as a nested array containing title, content, and date. You can then use functions like array_push() to add new articles to the array and loop through the array to display the news on the website.

// Initialize an empty array to store news articles
$newsArticles = [];

// Add a new article to the array
$newArticle = [
    'title' => 'Breaking News',
    'content' => 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.',
    'date' => date('Y-m-d')
];
array_push($newsArticles, $newArticle);

// Loop through the array to display news articles
foreach ($newsArticles as $article) {
    echo '<h2>' . $article['title'] . '</h2>';
    echo '<p>' . $article['content'] . '</p>';
    echo '<p>' . $article['date'] . '</p>';
}
