I have an array $array_file_names that contains 50 elements which are the names of the text files I wish to create. But the name of the file The code I have written is written below:
for($i=0;$i<$total_file_count;$i++)
{
$file="$array_file_names[$i].txt";
file_put_contents($file, "Testing....");
}
But the files that is created has the name $array_file_names[$i] and not the one that is contained in the array.
This will work:
for($i=0;$i<$total_file_count;$i++)
{
$file=$array_file_names[$i].".txt";
file_put_contents($file, "Testing....");
}
Using variables inside double quoted strings is tricky sometimes, specially with arrays, and lead to strange bugs. I prefer the old fashioned concatenation.
And a cleaner way to writing this is using foreach:
foreach($array_file_names as $file_name)
{
file_put_contents($file_name.".txt", "Testing....");
}
print_r($array_file_name); and show us the result.
