Create numbers within an array that add up to a set amount

Question

I\'m fairly new to PHP - programming in general. So basically what I need to accomplish is, create an array of x amount of numbers (created randomly) whose value add up

Answer 1

I'm not sure whether I understood you correctly, but try this:

$n = 4;
$max = 30;
$array = array();

do {
    $random = mt_rand(0, $max);

    if (!in_array($random, $array)) {
        $array[] = $random;
        $n--;
    }
} while (n > 0);
