Laravel looping through array in blade

Question

I have the following array:

$days = [
    ['dow' => 1, 'day' => 'Monday'],
    ['dow' => 2, 'day' => 'Tuesday'],
    ['dow' => 3, 'day' => 'Wednesday'],
    ['dow' => 4, 'day' => 'Thursday'],
    ['dow' => 5, 'day' => 'Friday'],
    ['dow' => 6, 'day' => 'Saturday'],
    ['dow' => 7, 'day' => 'Sunday'],
];

I'm trying to loop through it in my blade template as follows:

 @foreach ($days as $day)
       <label>{{$day['day']}}</label>
       {!! Form::text('day_of_wk[$day['dow']].start_time', null, ['class' => 'form-control'])!!}
  @endforeach

But I get error: syntax error, unexpected 'dow' (T_STRING)

How can I add the $day['dow'] value in my day_of_wk[] input array?

Take a look at the quotes around them. There is an syntax error. Remove the single Quotes or replace them by double quotes. — René Höhle

already tried that, it doesn't work. I think you can't add a variable in this manner when using laravel collective, unless someone can show me otherwise. — adam78

When I remove the single quotes I just get $day[dow] instead of the actual value — adam78

Managed to fix by doing the following 'day_of_wk['. $day['dow'] . '].start_time' — adam78

You can embed variables in php strings only when using double quotes. With single quotes you need to concatenate it as you found above. — Zoe Blair

  @foreach ($days as $day)
       <label>{{$day['day']}}</label>
       {!! Form::text('day_of_wk['.$day['dow'].'].start_time', null, ['class' => 'form-control'])!!}
  @endforeach

or

@foreach ($days as $day)
           <label>{{$day['day']}}</label>
           {!! Form::text("day_of_wk[{$day['dow']}].start_time", null, ['class' => 'form-control'])!!}
      @endforeach
