Look alittle farther down the page under 'More examples to demonstrate
this fact:' and you will see:

// The following is okay as it's inside a string. Constants are not
// looked for within strings so no E_NOTICE error here
print "Hello $arr[fruit]"; // Hello apple

// With one exception, braces surrounding arrays within strings
// allows constants to be looked for
print "Hello {$arr[fruit]}"; // Hello carrot
print "Hello {$arr['fruit']}"; // Hello apple
