Question

I need to assign two other variables to a variable.

Basically, I need to do something like this:

$gameName = $jackpot->gameName = $jackpot->MachineName;
echo $gameName;

Both $jackpot->gameName and $jackpot->MachineName return a “text” (a name) from two different parsed XML files.

What’s the correct syntax?

Answer 1

The two methods you can follow based on your requirement.

You can hold your data in an array.

$gameName = Array($jackpot->gameName,$jackpot->MachineName);

You can concat the two variables and store it in a new variable.

$gameName = $jackpot->gameName." ".$jackpot->MachineName;
