Somthing like this is the best way. json_encode do all work for you.

    $result = $_mysqli->query(...);
    $rs = array();
    $pos = 0;
    while($row = $result->fetch_assoc()){
        $rs[$pos]["n1"] = $row["n1"];
        $rs[$pos]["n2"] = $row["n2"];
        ...
        $rs[$pos++]["nn"] = $row["nn"];

    }
    header('Content-type: application/json');
    echo json_encode($rs);
