Correct arrangement

json_encode
$inputArray
$encodedJSON

Explanation

The correct arrangement uses json_encode as the function to convert a PHP object/array into a JSON string, $inputArray as the source data being encoded, and $encodedJSON as the variable storing the resulting compact JSON output. To remove space characters and produce compact JSON, json_encode($inputArray, JSON_UNESCAPED_SLASHES) or similar flags are used, with the result assigned to $encodedJSON. This follows the standard PHP pattern: $encodedJSON = json_encode($inputArray, JSON_PRETTY_PRINT ^ JSON_PRETTY_PRINT) or with JSON_UNESCAPED_UNICODE to strip whitespace.
