array random

[helen11]

Hi I have created an array for random allocation of holiday months

<?php
$months = array("Feburary", "April", "June");
?>

does anyone know how i could randomly allocate one of the 3 specified months in every year over the period of 9 years

PHP Code:

<?php
$months = array("Feburary", "April", "June");



for($i=0;$i<108;$i++)
{
echo $i . ": " . $months[rand(0,(count($months)-1))] . "<br />";
}  


?>

This will return 9 arrays all consisting of 12 random months from your array

PHP Code:

$months = array("Feburary", "April", "June");


$years = array();
for($i=1;$i<13;$i++)
{
for($x=1;$x<10;$x++)
{
    $years[$x][] = $months[rand(0,(count($months)-1))];
}

}  

var_dump($years);
