Question

Say I want to echo an array but I want to make the value in the array I echo variable, how would I do this?

Below is kind of an explanation of what I won’t to do but it isn’t the correct syntax.

$number = 0; echo myArray[$number]; 

Answer 1

I’m not sure what you mean. What you have isn’t working because you’re missing a $ in myArray:

$myArray = array('hi','hiya','hello','gday'); $index = 2; echo $myArray[$index]; // prints hello $index = 0; echo $myArray[$index]; // prints hi 

Unlike other languages, all PHP variable types are preceded by a dollar sign.
