1.2.229. Constant Dynamic Creation

Registering constant with dynamic values. Dynamic values include values read in external sources (files, databases, remote API, … ), random sources (time, rand(), …)

Dynamic constants are not possible with the const keyword, though static constant expression allows for a good range of combinations, including conditions.

<?php

$a = range(0, 4);
foreach($array as $i) {
    define("A$i", $i);
    define("N$i", true);
}

define("C", 5);

?>
