Getting error in PHP 5.3 which works in php 5.4 [closed]

Answer 1

As PHP documentation says:

PHP 5.4.0 offers a wide range of new features:

• Support for traits has been added.
  
• Short array syntax has been added, e.g. $a = [1, 2, 3, 4]; or $a = ['one' => 1, 'two' => 2, 'three' => 3, 'four' => 4];.
  
• Function array dereferencing has been added, e.g. foo()[0].
  
• Closures now support $this.
  
• < ?= is now always available, regardless of the short_open_tag php.ini option.
  
• Class member access on instantiation has been added, e.g. (new Foo)->bar().
  
• Class::{expr}() syntax is now supported.
  
• Binary number format has been added, e.g. 0b001001101.
  
• Improved parse error messages and improved incompatible arguments warnings.
  
• The session extension can now track the upload progress of files.
  
• Built-in development web server in CLI mode.
  

Try this:

if ($geodata = $user->getGeoCode()) { 
    $latitude = $geodata['latitude'];
}
