PHP array! Please help :D

[Freid001]

Hi!

 

Ok so I have a array inside a for loop. In the loop 1 is added to the array number and a value is stored in each new array number when the loop is run.

EXAMPLE:
(LOOP runs 1st time), array [0] = $value; , (LOOP runs 2nd time), array [1] = $value; (LOOP run 3rd time), array [2] = $value;         (AND SO ON)

 

I am then outside of the for loop taking the max number of the array and generating a random number with in the max array number.

EXAMPLE:
$rand = rand(0, $max_array_number);  

 

Next I want to echo out the value of the array number which rand has selected.

EXAMPLE:
echo array[$rand]; 

 

However when I echo this I just get the message array. No the value which is store in it ???

What does this mean?

 

Please help.

 

Thanks

Did you forget the $ before the array name? If you're just adding an incremented number to an array, you can use range().

 

$min = 0;
$max = 100;
echo array_rand(range($min, $max));
