How to print array elements in view

Question

I have an array in my controller:

$data = array(
          'a' => "Hay",
          'b' => "Bee",
          'c' => "Sea",
);
$this->view->assign($data);

In the view nothing is returned:

<?php echo $this->data['a']; ?>
<?php var_dump($this->data); ?>

Answer 1

try this in controller

$this->view->data = $data;
