Echo array values in Error Message

I have an array and I want to sho开发者_Go百科w the values of the array as part of an error message. But of course when I do the code below I just get my error message with array at the end. Please help

$matches = array("2","35","27");

Now I just want to show the values to in a error message.

if (isset($matches)){

    $error_message = "The following numbers match: " . $matches;

}

echo $error_message;

Result:

The following numbers match: 2 35 27

The simplest way I can think of is using implode. You may want to do an is_array check, but this should work.

$error_message = "The following numbers match: " . implode(' ', $matches);

Try this code:

<?php
$matches = array("2","35","27");
if (isset($matches)){
    $error_message = "The following numbers match: " . var_export($matches, true);
}
echo $error_message . "\n";

?>

OUTPUT

The following numbers match: array (
  0 => '2',
  1 => '35',
  2 => '27',
)

Look at the var_export manual here.
