I ran across some interesting code today. I tried to find out if this is a feature of PHP or if I am missing something, but was unable to find anything on Google. Probably becau
You can make an assignment like that in a conditional. What happened logically is that the value is assigned to $logo
and then $logo
is evaluated as to whether it is truthy. If it is truthy, the code in the conditional executes.
You will oftentimes see this sort of assignment/evaluation in the case of looping through database result sets, but generally I would suggest that it should be avoided outside such a common use case for sake of clarity in reading g code.
