<?php
require 'db.php';

   function submit($data){
        $column = implode(",", array_keys($data));
        $values = "'".implode("','", $data)."'";

        try{
          global $db;
          $insert = $db->prepare("insert into user_data($column) values(?)");
          $insert -> bindParam(1,$values);

  if(isset($_POST) && !empty($_POST)){

     $userName = filter_input(INPUT_POST, 'userName' ,FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
     $email = filter_input(INPUT_POST, 'email' ,FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
     $password = filter_input(INPUT_POST, 'password' ,FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);
     $confirm = filter_input(INPUT_POST, 'confirm' ,FILTER_SANITIZE_STRING);



     if($userName == "" || $email == "" || $password == "" || $confirm == ""){
        echo '<span class="error">Empty Fields</span>';
     }elseif(strlen($userName) < 4){
        echo '<span class="error">Username must be greater than 4 characters</span>';
     }elseif(!filter_var($email,FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL)){
        echo '<span class="error">Invalid email address</span>'; 
     }elseif($password < 8){
        echo '<span class="error">Password must be more than 8 characters</span>';
     }elseif($password !== $confirm){
        echo '<span class="error">Password not match</span>';
     }else{
        $cost = [md5($userName)."12"];
        $password = password_hash($password,PASSWORD_DEFAULT,$cost);
        $data = [
            'userName' => $userName,
            'email'    => $email,
            'password' => $password
        ];

        submit($data);

     }

Please check if your table in database has all the fields you are trying to save using the INSERT query. Your fields must be in the same order as you insert also.
