<?php
$animals = array('pig', 'chicken', 'cow', 'snake');
$i = 0;
while ($i < 10)
{
echo "<li>$animals[$i]</li>";
}
?>
I just wanna see the pig, chicken, cow and snake in list item.. but what happen is it just looping the word pig infinitely...
You are not adding increment to $i. You can add increment to $i by adding $i++ in your while loop.
<?php
$animals = array('pig', 'chicken', 'cow', 'snake');
$i = 0;
while ($i < 10)
{
if (isset($animals[$i]))
{
echo "<li>$animals[$i]</li>";
}
$i++
}
?>
listingIdthis should loop through the array by using $i++ which increments the $i variable by one.
<?php
$animals = array('pig', 'chicken', 'cow', 'snake');
$i = 0;
while ($i < 4) {
echo "<li>$animals[$i]</li>";
$i++;
}
?>
You can also use foreach to do this
$animals = array('pig', 'chicken', 'cow', 'snake');
foreach($animals as $animal)
echo "<li>{$animal}</li>";
I have added $i++; which is increment the value of $i by one each time in the loop, so we are able to display each element of array also find length of array in initial to avoid array out-of-bound problem.
<?php
$animals = array('pig', 'chicken', 'cow', 'snake');
$i = 0;
$len = count($animals);
while ($i < $len)
{
echo "<li>$animals[$i]</li>";
$i++;
}
?>
Initially count the length of array and then iterate the loop according to length.
i do like a while loop, so here's one more for the mix! :)
<?php
$animals = array('pig', 'chicken', 'cow', 'snake');
while ($animal = next($animals)) {
echo "<li>$animal[$i]</li>";
}
?>
this uses next() to get each value of the array, this returns false when its gets to the end of the array terminating the while loop. You don't need to control getting elements of the array using $i and you don't need extra if statements inside the loop checking if your element exists
<?php
$animals = array('pig', 'chicken', 'cow', 'snake');
$i = 0;
$max = sizeof($animals);
while ($i < max) {
echo "<li>$animals[$i]</li>";
i++;
}
?>
You haven't incremented the $i value so it is always $i = 0; so it always under 10.
Add $i++ to increment it to avoid this, but with this code you get another new problem, because the array is having only 3 elements and you are using 10 in the while loop.
<?php
$animals = array('pig', 'chicken', 'cow', 'snake');
$i = 0;
while ($i < 10)
{
echo "<li>$animals[$i]</li>";
$i++;
}
?>
$i++;is missing, and you should modify your loop statement towhile ($i < count($animals)) { ... }. Thecount($animals)statement was also in Ankur's answer, but there wasn't any explanation to that or$i++;.$i++adds one to$iso that$idoesn't forever stay at0. Also, to prevent out-of-bounds undefined behavior evils, I usedcount($animals). Don't go undefined. Don't do it.
