Unexpected '[' Problem

[Nikki-M]

Hello everybody.

 

Sorry, quite new to PHP; can somebody take a look at this little bit of code and explain why I am getting Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '['

 

<?php

for ($i=0;$i<count($raw_wind_dir);$i++) {
$sin_direction[] = sin(deg2rad($raw_wind_dir[$i]));
$cos_direction[] = cos(deg2rad($raw_wind_dir[$i]));

?>
}

 

Many thanks for reading

 

Regards

Nikki

Hi Dezkit

 

Thanks for your reply, however i only included the php tags in the code sample to make the colours look nicer on this forum. The brace in my code is in the correct place.

Your code is yielding no syntax errors when I check it.

Do $sin_direction and $cos_direction already exist: and if so, what datatype are they?

It is obvious we need to see more code. It could be in the 2 functions you call on the lines etc.

 

post more code and your question may be solved. In that code there are no errors.

You should get line number, where the error is encountered. Show us which line it is, and if possible post also a few lines above this line.

Thanks to everyone that has replied to my post.

 

I've now fixed the problem - I had a missing brace earlier in the code :-(

 

Must learn to look harder at my code before wasting you good peoples time :-)

Using editor that highlights matching braces (parentheses, quotes, etc) sure saves a lot of time.
