CallMeDiz Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Hey guys i've got a rookie question. How do i shuffle an array then display each number in the array using implode? Heres my code. $maximum_integer = strip_tags(trim($_REQUEST['maximum_integer'])); $range = range(0,$maximum_integer); $range_randomized[] = shuffle($range); $random_range_imploded = implode(', ', $range_randomized); print $random_range_imploded; it just keeps displaying '1'.... Thanks! Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/270488-how-to-shuffle-an-array-then-implode-it/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidAM Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 shuffle does not return the shuffled array. It modifies the array passed as a parameter. $maximum_integer = strip_tags(trim($_REQUEST['maximum_integer'])); $range = range(0,$maximum_integer); shuffle($range); $random_range_imploded = implode(', ', $range); print $random_range_imploded; Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/270488-how-to-shuffle-an-array-then-implode-it/#findComment-1391222 Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesThePanda Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 it looks like its returning a boolean. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/270488-how-to-shuffle-an-array-then-implode-it/#findComment-1391227 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pikachu2000 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Start var_dump()ing things at various points and see where the input/output becomes something other than what it should be.
