Filling Multidimensional Arrays in PHP

Suppose now we want to create some multidimensional array with numbers in a loop.

For example, the following two-dimensional array:

php<?php
  [[1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3], [1, 2, 3]]
?>

Let's solve the task by using two nested loops. The outer loop will create subarrays, and the inner one will fill these subarrays with numbers:

php<?php
  $arr = [];
  
  for ($i = 0; $i < 3; $i++) {
    for ($j = 0; $j < 3; $j++) {
      $arr[$i][$j] = $j + 1; // filling the subarray with numbers
    }
  }
  
  var_dump($arr);
?>

javascript[[1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]]

javascript[['x', 'x', 'x', 'x'], ['x', 'x', 'x', 'x'], ['x', 'x', 'x', 'x']]

javascript[
  [
    [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
    [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
  ],
  [
    [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
    [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
  ],
  [
    [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
    [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
  ],
]
