Assigning varibales???

[amg182]

Hi just a quick question.

 

How can i assign a calculation/formula as a variable?

 

I would like something like this(if possible):

 

 

 

 

<?php.........        

$distance='.round($hypot/1000,2).';
?>
...

<?php echo $distance; ?>

 

Thanks

Indeed, it's that simple:

 

<?php

$a  = ($b / $c) * 1,5 + $d;     // or whatever formula you desire... 

echo $a;

?>

[cs.punk]

<?php
$distance = round($hypot/1000, 2);

echo $distance; ?>

Thanks! Really appreciate your help!

Do you mean the actual formula as opposed to the result?

 

 

Look into anonymous functions.

$distance = function($hypot)
{
   return round($hypot/1000, 2);
};


$hypot = 25000;
echo $distance($hypot);
