从Datetime大于的数组中取消设置变量

Question

So I been having this issue that I been trying to solve for a while, the issue is that I have an array

$time=array("10:00 AM","11:00 AM","12:00 PM","1:00 PM","2:00 PM","3:00 PM","4:00 PM","5:00 PM");

and the problem is that I'm trying to u take off the variables of the array if the time now is grater than the value in the array then take off the value from the array else just leave it in there and move on to the next position

This is what I have tried so far

$tz_object = new DateTimeZone('America/New_York');
$datetime = new DateTime();
$datetime->setTimezone($tz_object);
$datetime->format('g:i A');

$i=0;
while($i<= count($time)){
    if ($datetime> '12:00 PM') {
      echo "take off time from the array";
    }

    $i++;
}

I should end up with a result like this in my array

$time=array("1:00 PM","2:00 PM","3:00 PM","4:00 PM","5:00 PM");

You need to actually retrieve the formatted date.

$current = $datetime->format('g:i A');

then inside the loop, you can use strtotime to convert each to an integer:

if ( strtotime($current) > strtotime($time[$i]) ) {
    unset($time[$i]);
}
