Question

I was just wondering, how can I improve this code?

  $count = count($data['tags']);
  if($count > 3)
  {
    $hashtags = implode(',', array_slice($data['tags'], 0,3));
  }
  elseif($count !== 0)
  {
    $hashtags = implode(',', array_slice($data['tags'], 0,$count));
  }
  else
  {
    $hashtags = 'data';
  }

Btw, wasn’t there a section on stackoverflow to ask for possibles code improvements? Can’t find it in the footer links

EDIT:

By improvement I was mainly thinking about shorthand and than I was looking for a different approach for the same thing (just to learn something new) Thanks for the help guys!

Answer 1

Not tested since I don’t code in PHP, but how about this?

$count = count($data['tags']);
$hashtags = $count == 0 ? 'data' :
   implode(',', array_slice($data['tags'], 0,min(3,$count)));
