I need to get this output.
the result is"random"safdsaf
I am using this piece of code
<?php
$x = "random";
echo 'the result is' .$x. 'safdsaf';
?>
But i am getting this
the result israndomsafdsaf
I have to define random before printing it.
i.e. I do not want to change this piece of code
<?php
$x = "random";
What change should i make inside echo to get the desired output?
If you are using the same type of quotes delimit the quotes in your string like this:
echo "The result is\"" .$x. "\"safdsaf";
or simply use two sets of different quotes:
echo 'the result is"' .$x. '"safdsaf';
Output of either line of code:
The result is"random"safdsaf
Try this
Added the little bit space befor ' and added ", it will give the some out put as you want
echo 'the result is "' .$x. '" safdsaf';
the result will be
The result is "random" safdsaf
If you want to print out double quotes you can include them in single quotes Something like this would do the trick.
$x = '"random"';
If for whatever reason you don't want to use single quotes you can also escape them like :
$x = "\"random\"";
As you want to keep the string, I suggest you change the original line where you put it in :
echo 'the result is"' .$x. '"safdsaf';
the principle stays the same Here's some reading material : http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php
You can use simply :-
echo 'the result is "' .$x. '" safdsaf';
OR you can use .
echo "the result is \" $x\" safdsaf";
Using the \ before the quote like this: the result is \"random\" safdsaf. if you have alot of quotes and such in a string, i would suggest using the addslashes(). This method will do the work for you for you. For more info, take a look here - http://www.w3schools.com/php/func_string_addslashes.asp
