PHP and MySQL Basics: Assigning and Using Variables
Assigning a value to PHP variable is very easy, you can use the assignment operator ( = ) to store values into a php variable. refer below for example.
<html> <head> <title>Assigning Values to PHP Variable</title> </head> <body> <?php //this is how you assign a value to a php variable $age = 20; //To use the variable $age, simply call its name and PHP will substitute its value at runtime. //this is how you use a php variable echo "I am now $age years old"; ?> </body> </html>
copy and paste the code above to your text editor and save it as variable.php then run it on your localhost.
you should get this output..

I guess it could help someone get started… Maybe you could take it a little further and explain how to get them from $_GET, and also how to concatenate using .= and maybe even some +=, ++ action.
