[PHP] 'Dynamic variable name' ?

[RedPillow]

This is something I've managed to do so far:

Code: (php)

function generateMap {
	$i = 0;
		$openMap = fopen("map/map_1-1.txt", "r");
			while (!feof($openMap)) {
				$line = fgets($openMap, 1024);
					$map = str_split($line);

The problem is, that I want to name the array $map like $map$i  or $map + $i...
So that it's like $map1 = blah, $map2 = blah, $map3 = blah ...

Do you get me?
How do I do that?

Why not use arrays instead?

[RedPillow]

Whaat?

I want to get every line of the text-file.
Then spilt those lines to arrays called map1, map2, map3 ... where each character of the line is one cell of an array.
But how do I name the $map differently after every loop?

like $map$i or somrthing?

Do as the man says, use an array.

[RedPillow]

What do you mean?
Aren't I using arrays when splitting the lines to an array?

[f0dder]

Instead of your idea of "$map$i", you'd use multi-dimension arrays, or an array of arrays... like

Code: (php)

$ubermap[i] = str_split($line);

Thanks!
It's working now as so:
(Btw, any 'better' way to thank like reputation + etc. ?)

Code: (php)

	$i = 0;
	$openMap = fopen("map/map_1-1.txt", "r");
		while (!feof($openMap)) {
			$line = fgets($openMap);
			$map[$i] = str_split($line);
			$i++;
		}
fclose($openMap);

for ($row = 0; $row <= 13; $row++)
{
    for ($col = 0; $col <= 13; $col++)
    {
		if ($map[$row][$col] == 'X') {
			echo "<img src = 'img/wall/X.jpg'/>";}
		elseif ($map[$row][$col] == 'G') {
			echo "<img src = 'img/terrain/G.jpg'/>";}
    }
}

No reputation system, Eternal Gratefulness will also work nicely. But if there was a reputation system in place, f0dder would obviously be off the scale anyways

Or a (small) donation to the person that helped you out so nicely

Ath: obviously, I'm embarrassed I didn't think of that first!
