foreach

I'm sorry, my head is not with it today...

What am I doing wrong here, the result I am trying to achieve: 1 80% 2 80% 3 80% etc.. 42 times.

<?php

for($i=1;$i<=42;$i++){

$p = array($percentage = 100 * $i = 80 / 100);

foreach ($p as $percent) {
    echo $i, $percent,"%";
}

}

?>

PHP:

 

NEVER EVER modify the for counter variable in your for loop. Lets start from there...

 

What exactly are you trying to do/achieve?

 

$i = 1-42
$percentage = 100 * $i = 80 / 100);
I will populate the variable "80" from a mysql statement

..and thus whatever "80" = I will print/echo that to a page

 

Ok I understand the bolded text..but not the percentage - can you reply with an example, lets say if $i = 1; what do you expect $percentage to be? - if $i = 5 what would $percentage be?

//Caution: im quite tired/sleepy so apologies.

 

<?php
$p=array();
$percentage =100;
for($i=1;$i<=42;$i++){
	$buff= $i;
	$p[$i] = ($percentage * $buff = 80 / 100);
}

$i = 1;
foreach ($p as $percent) {
    echo $i++.' ', $percent,"%";
	echo "<br/>";


}

?>

Code (markup):

 

Its a percentage thing.
If you echo $percentage = 100 * 1 = 50 / 100); or $percentage = 100 * 2 = 50 / 100); up to 42 you will get 1 80% , 2 80% etc..
Which is why I tried the ++, instead of writing out 42 equations

 

Thanks @Eager2Seo

 

Would that be because of a late night watching the England match yesterday, congrats BTW
