Remove key from array if key is in another array

I have two arrays

array1 (
    "akey1" => "dfksjhf"
    "akey2" => "adasjkgffs"
    "akey3" => "afkjhsafshfkah"
)

array2 (
    "akey2" => "could be anything..."
)

I'm looking for a PHP function that I can supply the two arrays to and the following will happen:

If both arrays have an identical key (regardless of data) then remove the key from array 1 and return the rem开发者_开发技巧ainder of array 1.

The function if ran would return:

array3 (
    "akey1" => "dfksjhf"
    "akey3" => "afkjhsafshfkah"
)

Is there a PHP function that can do this already and if not what would be the fastest and most efficient way of doing this function in PHP?

Many Thanks

You are looking for array_diff_key():

$array3 = array_diff_key($array1, $array2);

array_diff_key should work for you:

Returns an array containing all the entries from array1 whose keys are not present in any of the other arrays.

$new_array = array_diff_key($array_1, $array_2);
