<?php
   $arr = array( " John ", "Jacob ", " Tom ", " Tim ");
   echo "Array with leading and trailing whitespaces...
";    foreach( $arr as $value ) {       echo "Value = $value
";    }    $result = array_map('trim', $arr);    echo "
Updated Array...
";    foreach( $result as $value ) {       echo "Value = $value
