creating variables automatically in a loop

[SteveYantz]

I'm not sure, but I thought there was a way to rename variables and/or change them to create additional variables.

Can someone enlighten me?
lets say I grab a query that says the maximum of the season field is 6.
I run a loop loops through 6 times, running 6 seperate queries.
These queries grab all the rows that have season fields that are the same number as the loop's number.

I need variable for each query.
But I can't create these variables manually, because I don't know how many queries will run.

You can create an array variable and put in the loop and you can later refer it.

hmmm... can I ask what that might look like. I'm still a bit amature with php. Just started teaching it to myself about a month ago.

[jaligamasr]

you can create an array variable like this
$xyz = array();

lets assume a loop
while(condition)
{
$xyz[ ] = /* store the retrieved value */

}

in order to retrieve the value
use foreach( $xyz as $value) syntax
or u can refer normally as $xyz[i] also if you want to know the length of the array use the function count($xyz)
I hope this work or else please provide you syntax so that I can figure out some possible solution

So something like this?
I've presented the query I'd be using.
Yes it's got shortcut functions that wordpress created.

$seasonCount = '6';
$sArray = array();


for ($i = 1; $i <= $seasonCount; $i++)
{
$sArray[ ] = $wpdb->get_result("
	SELECT post_episode
	  FROM $wpdb->posts key1
	INNER JOIN $wpdb->term_relationships key2
            	  on key1.ID = key2.object_id
	WHERE key2.term_taxonomy_id = $categoryID
	  AND key1.post_status = 'publish'
	  AND key1.post_type = 'post'
	  AND key1.post_season = $i
	ORDER BY post_episode ASC");

}

If this is the syntax, how would I call it into a looping set of divs?
Something like this?

<?php for ($i = 1; $i <= $seasonCount; $i++){ ?>

<div> 

<?php 
foreach ($sArray[$i] as $sArray[$i]) {
 echo $sArray[$i];
} ?> 

</div>

<?php } ?>

[jaligamasr]

use this way

<?php 
foreach ($sArray as $value) 

 echo '<div>'.$value. '</div>';
 ?>
