Working with files

[victordb]

I have a question how is it possible to gather information from a parsed text file, I have a text file with 5 values all seperated by spaces and I was wondering how I would say get value number 4 from the text file and load it into a variable.

Thanks

Read the PHP documentation for the fscanf() function at http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fscanf.php. I think it's exactly what you want.

Thanks,

I have tried to use that function but I found using the explode() function was easier to implement.

Yes that is certainly true if you're just using spaces to separate the data. fscanf() is useful when you have more complicated formatting.

Whatever works for you 😃!
