<?php
$arr = array('name','rollno','address');
file_put_contents('array.txt', print_r($arr, true));
?>
The above php write text file in successfully. i want read that text file in php?
If you plan on reusing those same values inside the array, you could use var_export on creating that array file instead.
Basic example:
$arr = array('name','rollno','address');
file_put_contents('array.txt', '<?php return ' . var_export($arr, true) . ';');
Then, when the time comes to use those values, just use include:
$my_arr = include 'array.txt';
echo $my_arr[0]; // name
Or just use a simple JSON string, then encode / decode:
$arr = array('name','rollno','address');
file_put_contents('array.txt', json_encode($arr));
Then, when you need it:
$my_arr = json_decode(file_get_contents('array.txt'), true);
echo $my_arr[1]; // rollno
'<?php return ' . var_export($InputArr, true) . ';' why we use return i don't know can you explainUse this one:
$arr = file('array.txt', FILE_IGNORE_NEW_LINES);
print_r($arr);
you can simply try to read the file as below
$strarray = file_get_contents('array.txt');
Then you can use the array as per your need.
fopen()
The first parameter of fopen() contains the name of the file to be opened and the second parameter specifies in which mode the file should be opened
fread()
The first parameter of fread() contains the name of the file to read from and the second parameter specifies the maximum number of bytes to read.
fclose()
The fclose() function is used to close an open file.
$arr = array('name','rollno','address');
file_put_contents('array.txt', print_r($arr, true));
$myfile = fopen("array.txt", "r") or die("Unable to open file!");
echo fread($myfile,filesize("array.txt"));
fclose($myfile);
Output:
Array ( [0] => name [1] => rollno [2] => address )
print_rusevar_exportinsteadvar_exportor just create a json file$strarray = file_get_contents('input_array_export.txt');and my input_array_export.txt containarray ( 'select' => array ( 189 => array ( 'vl' => array ( 0 => '2', 1 => '1', )and then i have tried toprint_r($strarray['select']);it has returnaselectindex from readed array
