PHP - Use range() as value for Array -

i've seen few example here on stack don't seem cover scenario.

i'm attempting this;

$flight_range = array(                     array('range' => range(1,50),  'service' => 'long haul'),                     array('range' => range(51,54), 'service' => 'short haul'),                     ....                  ); 

but php won't let me. returns;

parse error: syntax error, unexpected '(', expecting ')' on line 02 

this not work either;

array(range(1,50), range(51,54) ... 

the problem trying assign value of range().

i have 20+ sets of range values assign.

can suggest easy method achieving these sorts of array values?

edit; haike00, jack , sean right.

maybe question should how make $flight_range member variable of class;

private $flight_range = array(array('range' => range(1,50), 'service' => 'long haul')); 

what problem doing in constructor?

class myclass {         private $flight_range;          public function __construct() {                 $this->flight_range = array(                         array(                                 'range' => range( 1, 50 ),                                 'service' => 'long haul'                         )                 );         } }
