variables within variables?

[galvin]

Ultimately I will be echoing variables like $mycode1 and $mycode2 and $mycode3, etc, etc.

 

But before I get there, I am creating those variables inside for loops (which are using $i to count), so what is the proper way to write out that "variable within a variable" while I'm creating them?

 

For example, this clearly isn't right (i tried it and it's not working)...

 

$mycode$i = "stuff";

without seeing your code and logic here, I can't help a whole lot 

can you please post your code

You should use an array. For example:

 

for($i = 0; $i < 10; $i++){
$arr[$i] = "some text ".$i;
}

echo $arr[5];

zander1983 has it right, use arrays. They will be much easier to understand and perform better. If you want to just know how to get your code to work:

 

$i=0;
$temp = 'mycode' . $i;
$$temp = "stuff";
echo $mycode0;

 

Should do it, this technique is called, variables variable.
