<?php
// First, create an array. Here are two ways :
// first method :
$array = array('a' => 33,'b' => 99,'c' => 383);
// another method :
$array[a] = 33;
$array[b] = 99;
$array[c] = 383;
// Those are identical. Next, let's print all of them.
foreach ($array as $key => $value) {
print "<br>$key equals $value \n";
}
// That will print them all. Now, let's say you wanted :
// $a = 33 , $b = 99 and $c = 383
// Then do this :
extract($array);
// This will print 33
print $a;
?>
Of course this does not explain everything about arrays but I think it
refers to your question.
