Question

Hi I have a list of values named:

• $value1
• $value2
• $value3
• …

and I’d like to assign each value to an array element; something like:

$my_array[1]=$value1;
$my_array[2]=$value2;
$my_array[3]=$value3;

How can I do this using a for cycle? The array is not a problem but I can’t figure out how to write some code for the value, it should be something like:

for($i=1; $i<=10000; $i++)
{
    $my_array[$i]=$value$i;
}

Answer 1

Try this:

for ($i=1; $i<=10000; $i++) {
    $val_name = "value" . $i;
    $my_array[$i]=$$val_name;
}
