PHP range

Range

Range is a function that creates an array containing the range of elements

It takes 3 arguments

range(start,end,step)

Start is the first value

End is the last value

Step is the increment between first and last values default is 1

So let’s see some examples

A sequence of numbers between 1 and 6

$range = range(1,6);
print_r($range);
// Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 2 [2] => 3 [3] => 4 [4] => 5 [5] => 6 )

A sequence of numbers between 1 and 6 with increments of 2 (step 2)

$range = range(1,6,2);
print_r($range);
// Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 3 [2] => 5 )

Conclusion

Now you know range funciton in PHP.

I recommend you to open a PHP file and try to define different ranges. Then try different steps for all those ranges.
