hi
was just wondering what the difference is between the echo and print_r commands bacause when i run this code:
<?php
$output = "this sentence";
$face = explode(" ", $output);
print_r($face);
echo $face;
?>it outputs Array ( [0] => this [1] => sentence ) Array
so the echo isn't printing...whats the difference? matter with the code?
Jump to Posthttp://php.net/print_r]print_r[/url][/icode] will print an array and its contents like you see in
Array ( [0] => this [1] => sentence )
http://php.net/print_r]print_r[/url][/icode] will print an array and its contents like you see in
Array (
[0] => this
[1] => sentence
)
http://php.net/echo]echo[/url][/icode] simply echoes a string. It says "Array" because when an array is converted to a string that is the output.
excellent, thank you has been puzzling me for a while.
