The PHP list () assigns the values in the array to some variables in one step. Like array (), list () is not a real function, but a language structure.
Grammar:
void list (mixed var, mixed ...)
Note: List () can only be used for arrays of numeric indexes and assumes that the numeric index starts at 0.
The list () function in PHP is used to assign values to a set of variables in a single operation.
Like Array (), this is not a real feature, but a language structure. List () is used to specify one of the variables in the list of jobs.
Instance:
<?php$info = Array (' coffee ', ' brown ', ' caffeine ');//Listing all the Variableslist ($drink, $color, $power) = $info; echo "$drink is $color and $power makes it SPECIAL.N";//Listing Some of themlist ($drink,, $power) = $info; echo "$drink has $ POWER.N ";//Or Let's skip to only the third onelist (,, $power) = $info; echo" I need $power!n ";//list () doesn ' t work wit H stringslist ($bar) = "ABCDE"; Var_dump ($bar); Null?>
Example 1:
<?php$arr_age = Array ($wang, $li, $zhang) = $arr _age;echo $wang; Output: 18echo $zhang; Output:25?>
Example 2, data table query:
$result = mysql_query ("SELECT ID, username, email from user", $conn) and while (list ($id, $username, $email) = Mysql_fetch_row ( $result) { echo "user name: $username <br/>"; echo "e-mail: $email";}
List () using array index
The list () allows the use of another array to receive values from the array, except that when using an indexed array, the order of assignment is the opposite of the order listed in list ():
$arr _age = Array (1, 2), list ($a [0], $a, $a [+]) = $arr _age;
Print_r ($a); the output $a array structure is as follows:
Array ([2] = [1] = [0] = 18)
