How can PHP be used to manipulate JSON data and remove specific elements?

To manipulate JSON data and remove specific elements using PHP, you can decode the JSON data into an associative array, remove the specific elements using unset(), and then encode the modified array back into JSON format. 

// Sample JSON data
$jsonData = '{"name": "John", "age": 30, "city": "New York"}';

// Decode JSON data into an associative array
$data = json_decode($jsonData, true);

// Remove the 'age' element
unset($data['age']);

// Encode the modified array back into JSON format
$modifiedJsonData = json_encode($data);

echo $modifiedJsonData;
