How to multiply PHP variables in this for loop

April 24, 2022

I’m getting values from a form and trying to multiply them with values on the left hand side incremented in 5s. I added in a picture of the results too.

Code:

<?php

if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "GET") {
    $costOne = trim($_GET["c1"]);
    $costTwo = trim($_GET["c2"]);
    $costThree = trim($_GET["c3"]);
    $costFour = trim($_GET["c4"]);
    $costFive = trim($_GET["c5"]);
    $minimum = trim($_GET["min"]);
    $maximum = trim($_GET["max"]);
}

echo '<table>';
echo '<tr>';
echo '<th>Cost per person<br>Party size</th>';
echo "<th>$costOne</th>";
echo "<th>$costTwo</th>";
echo "<th>$costThree</th>";
echo "<th>$costFour</th>";
echo "<th>$costFive</th>";
echo '</tr>';


for ($col=$minimum; $col <= $maximum; $col+=5) {
    echo "<tr>";
    echo "<td>$col</td>";
    echo "<td>$col*$costOne</td>";
    echo "<td>$col*$costTwo</td>";
    echo "<td>$col*$costThree</td>";
    echo "<td>$col*$costFour</td>";
    echo "<td>$col*$costFive</td>";
    echo "</tr>";
}
echo '</table>';
?>

Result

>Solution :

Try this:

for ($col=$minimum; $col <= $maximum; $col+=5) {
echo "<tr>";
echo "<td>" .$col. "</td>";
echo "<td>" .$col*$costOne. "</td>";
echo "<td>" .$col*$costTwo. "</td>";
echo "<td>" .$col*$costThree. "</td>";
echo "<td>" .$col*$costFour. "</td>";
echo "<td>" .$col*$costFive. "</td>";
echo "</tr>";
}
