I have a script that extracts company names from a string. I want the extracted names to be converted to php variable. For example, the first result (Real Coffee Sweeden
) must be converted to $RealCoffeeSweeden = 0
so that I can later assign a value to it.
$test = '/showname/0406741848 : Real Coffee Sweeden
/showname/0406741849 : Healthzone SE

$myRows = explode("\n", $test);
foreach ($myRows as $key => $value) {
$pieces = explode(":", $value);
$result[] = $pieces[1];
}
foreach ($result as $res) {
$res // covert to php variable
//example: $RealCoffeeSweeden = 0;
}
You should use an array for that. But if you want to do it the way you write, you can simply do something like that:
foreach( $myRows as $key => $value) {
$pieces = explode(":", $value);
$res = str_replace(' ', '', $pieces[1]); // replace whitespaces for valid names
$$res = 0; // note the double dollar signs
}
If you want to use an array tho, do something like this:
$result = [];
foreach( $myRows as $key => $value) {
$pieces = explode(":", $value);
$key = str_replace(' ', '', $pieces[1]);
$result[$key] = 0;
}
According to your comment, change second last line in the foreach loop with following:
$res = str_replace(' ', '', $res) . '_f';
