How can PHP arrays be used to manage the order of table columns selected by users?

When users select table columns, we can use PHP arrays to manage the order in which the columns are displayed. We can store the selected columns in an array and then use that array to determine the order in which the columns should be displayed in the table. 

// Sample code to manage the order of table columns selected by users

// Array to store the selected columns
$selectedColumns = ['column1', 'column2', 'column3'];

// Loop through the selected columns array to display the table headers in the specified order
echo '<table>';
echo '<tr>';
foreach ($selectedColumns as $column) {
    echo '<th>' . $column . '</th>';
}
echo '</tr>';

// Display table rows with data for each selected column
// This is where you would fetch data from your database and display it in the corresponding columns
echo '<tr>';
foreach ($selectedColumns as $column) {
    echo '<td>Data for ' . $column . '</td>';
}
echo '</tr>';

echo '</table>';
