Arrays and foreach

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

I'm pretty new to PHP programming, I come from java and I'm trying to do some stuff with OOP.

 

For now I'm trying to create an array of classes, then loop through them printing their values with a foreach loop.

 

My code is as follows:

 

class Answer {
private $answerClass;
private $answerText;
private $answerURL;

public function __construct($class, $text, $url) {
	$this->answerClass = $class;
	$this->answerText = $text;
	$this->answerURL = $url;
}

public function getClass() {
	return $this->answerClass;
}
public function getText() {
	return $this->answerText;
}
public function getURL() {
	return $this->answerURL;
}
}

$answerOne = new Answer("Left", "Left", "http://www.google.com");
$answerTwo = new Answer("Right", "Right", "http://www.google.com");

$allAnswers = array();
$allAnswers[] = $answerOne;
$allAnswers[] = $answerTwo;
foreach ($allAnswers as $answer); {
echo ($answer->getClass() . " " . $answer->getText() . " " . $answer->getURL());
}

 

My expectation is that this would output LeftLefthttp://www.google.comRightRighthttp://www.google.com.

 

However it seems to only output RightRighthttp:www.google.com

 

I'm sure I'm doing something stupid here, and I spent about an hour last night going through tutorials etc trying to find out why but no luck.

 

Could someone please explain what's going on?

 

When I print a count($allAnswers) I get 2, which suggests to me I'm doing something wrong with the foreach...

 

Thanks in advance.

You have a semi-colon in your foreach()


foreach ($allAnswers as $answer); {

echo ($answer->getClass() . " " . $answer->getText() . " " . $answer->getURL());

}


Works this way

 

foreach ($allAnswers as $answer) {
echo ($answer->getClass() . " " . $answer->getText() . " " . $answer->getURL());
}
