使用Curly Braces构造输出字符串-PHP

Question

When i do either of the two sets of code below i get an parse error and the resulting output doesn't show.

Surely there is a way of assigning a value to a variable, creating another variable to output the string, and then echo the variable (using the curly braces{} syntax)?

First Example

$name = "Jim ";
$show = echo "{$name}is my name";
echo $show;

Second Example

$name = "Jim ";
$show = echo "{$name}is my name";

Neither of the above work?

Answer 1

The problem is your setting a variable equal to echo:

$show = echo "{$name}is my name";

This should work:

$name = "Jim ";
$show = "{$name}is my name";
echo $show;
