Question

I am going to ask because of this answer.

My code looks like

<?php
$lines = file('file.txt');
$count = count($lines);
$i = 0;
$query = "INSERT INTO table VALUES ";
foreach($lines as $line){
    $i++;
    if ($count == $i) {
        $query .= "('".$line."')";
    }
    else{
        $query .= "('".$line."'),";
    }
}
echo $query;

is there more elegant way to do this/function in php?

Answer 1

foreach ( $lines AS $line )  
{  
  $query[] = "($line)";  
}  

echo  "INSERT INTO table VALUES " . implode(",",$query);

is how to do it with implode but i think AlienWebguy’s is better
