I’m developing a php application and want to determine if a certain word will receive the letter "a" or the letter "o".

I was doing with if and elseif, but I don’t know why it’s not working.

I will put an example that I did to demonstrate my problem, this is not the code of my application, but it is an example that explains well my problem.

$type = "";
$texto1 = "carr";
$texto2 = "cas";

if($texto1){
$type = "o";
}elseif($texto2){
$type = "a";
}
echo $texto1.$type . '<br>';
echo $texto1.$type;
php

  • if ($texto1), what you hope to verify with this?

    ola, vc cannot use $texto1 as boolean condition, you would have to do something like this: if($texto1 == "Carr") string comparing string int comparing int

The builder if has the return of type booleano, that is, test whether the condition is verdadeira or falsa. Thus, your code is testing whether the variable $texto1 is true, and since it is not empty, the return will always be true.

Take a look at the control structures of php:
