PHP - Find Minimum In Array Loop Until...
I need help this problem seem too tricky for me right now.
I got an array with decimal numbers and behind it says Yes/No. The min() function works magically and still is able to correctly give me the lowest value. But how do i make a while loop that loops until it pops a value that is lowest and has Yes behind it? For example: Array => ('11,64|No', '209,81|Yes', '533,42|Yes', '27,90|No', '93,01|Yes') So this function should return '93,01|Yes' Similar TutorialsSay i have an array (called $myarray) and it has 10 numbers in it like this... 1 2 4 8 9 10 12 14 15 18 Now in my code, I get a number and lets say for this example it is "5". I need to see if that number is in the array --easy enough using in_array()--, but if it is NOT in the array, I need to find the next available number in the array that is greater than my starting number of 5 (which would be "8" in this example). But what is the best way to find this number (i.e. 8 in this example)? I imagine I need to somehow loop through but i'm not sure which loop is the best to use and i'm generally confusing the hell out of myself (which is frustrating because this is probably rather simple to do ). Can anyone help guide me in the right direction? I'm sure this is possible, but I'm not having any luck. Code: [Select] $array = array("11:23", "12:46", "13:34", "14:34", "14:85"); if (in_array('12', $array)) { echo "yes"; } else { echo "no"; }} Hi all, i have this array $str = array("apple is red", "banana is yellow", "pineaple is tropical fruit", "coconut is also tropical fruit", "grape is violet"); i want to find string "coconut" inside $str and put the whole string "coconut is also tropical fruit" into variable $coconut. can i do this? i don't want to use the this code Code: [Select] <? $coconut = $str[3]; echo "$coconut"; ?> can someone help? Thank you, Best Regards I have a list of products in database and some have the same itemid but a different price depending on size What i want to do i if the itemid has more than one size, take the smallest price and then add the word "From" at the beginning. I've tried using the MIN() function but can't get it to do what i want. If there is only one size it works fine but if there is more than one it just says "From 0.00" Code: [Select] while ($row = $result->fetch()) { if(!isset($items[$row['itemid']])) { $items[$row['itemid']] = $row; } $items[$row['itemid']]['sizes'][$row['size']] = $row['price']; ### CHANGED ### } foreach($items AS $subitem) { list($prodid, $itemid, $item, $size, $description, $shortdesc, $image, $price) = $subitem; //Create field for item name based upon record count if(count($subitem['sizes']) > 1) { /*$item_name_field = "<ul>\n"; foreach($subitem['sizes'] as $size => $price) ### CHANGED ### {*/ //} //$item_name_field .= "<ul>\n"; $myprice = explode(".",number_format(min($subitem['price']),2)); $item_name_field .= "<li>From ".$myprice[0].".".$myprice[1]." {$size}</li>\n"; } else { $myprice = explode(".",number_format($subitem['price'],2)); $item_name_field .= "<li><span class=\"ucprice\">£".$myprice[0]."<?span><span class=\"lcprice\">.".$myprice[1]."</span></li>\n"; } Good Evening, I'm having no luck in something that I'm sure is incredibly simply... If I have an array like the following... Code: [Select] $array = array(15,22,0,43,0,6);How can I find and replace all the zeros with a one? Regards, Ace I need to find the earliest and latest times, but there must be at least 3 to count it. $array[] = "09:00 - 15:00" $array[] = "09:00 - 15:00" $array[] = "09:00 - 15:00" $array[] = "09:00 - 17:00" $array[] = "09:00 - 15:30" $array[] = "07:30 - 15:00" $array[] = "07:00 - 12:00" So the above would return 09:00 - 15:00 I thin would need to ensure that a maximum 4 hours inbetween, so I then get something like 10:00 - 14:00 returned okay I am using a jquery plugin to re-arrange images which are in mysql and they have their own "order_number" ... when i re-arrange stuff the new order is put into a hidden field in a form and i have it along with another hidden field with their current order... when submitted I combine these two fields in an array so the key is the original order and the value is the new order ....i have 12 images... Array ( [1] => 1 [2] => 2 [3] => 3 [4] => 4 [5] => 5 [6] => 6 [7] => 7 [8] => 8 [9] => 9 [10] => 10 [11] => 11 [12] => 12 ) this is what is what the array looks like... i have a foreach loop with a mysql query but things get kind of weird when you try to do it this way $num = $_POST['old_num']; $num = unserialize($num); $sort = $_POST['sortOrder']; $sort = explode(',', $sort); if ($_POST){ $combine = array_combine($num, $sort); foreach($combine as $key => $value){ mysql_query("UPDATE shirts SET order_number='$value' WHERE order_number='$key' ") or die(mysql_error()); } when you do this lets say for example we have the image with order number "1" get switched with the image order number "2"..... the database first updates with number 1 which becomes 2... then when it goes to number "2"... at this point... the first image gets switched back to number 1.... so 1 becomes 2 then the new 2 becomes 1 again and the other 2 becomes 1 also. I can not think of another way I could update mysql with the correct order numbers... If anyone has any ideas or other solutions I am open to all suggestions... thank you! Hi I am trying to search an array that comes from a power shell script, the array of strings that returns is ever changing as it receives variables from the script. Therefore I need to use preg_grep to search for the word "not" I am also using another array which inverts this I then need to compare these new two arrays to the original and separate the results $working and not working into a table. I would be most grateful for any advice/solutions. The preg_grep aren't displaying anything.

Hi i need a bit of help. i have toner database which stores, the type, brand, colour, min, max stock. I just want to know if there is anyway of notifying the user when the toner reachs the min level, maybe highligh the row in red or something similar. many thanks. Here's the scenario.... A Customer clicks on a product on the product page, this will open up the page for the individual product. In this example, it's a shirt. The shirt is available in many sizes and colors. The Minimum QTY for this product is : 12 . The customer can select as many sizes and colors as they want, as long they select a total of 12 (all sizes + all colors = total). After making their selections for this shirt, there is an "Add to Cart" button. I would like to run a check to make sure that the total is equal to or greater than the minimum QTY.

I am working with wordpress. I am using a plugin that gets options stored in an array in the database. This is how I get the options Code: [Select] $options = get_option('option_tree'); echo $options['exc_cat']; the exc_cat is a key that stores a set of values. Right now with the code above, it echoes Array. If I do this Code: [Select] echo $options['exc_cat'][0]; it returns 5. Which is what I would expect it to do. What I can't figure out is how to get it to store each value which should be a number into 1 variable. What I need to do is loop through each value that is stored in the exc_cat key, return the number seperated by a -1,. So the result should look like this -1, -5 1 and 5 should be the only two numbers stored in the array at this point. Can you help? Thanks Hello, I'm trying to loop out the following value from the below array and cannot figure it out - orders.orderid Could anyone help me?

Cheers guys, Ruddy Hi I am trying to tidy up a bit of php code to make the end display much better but I am a bit stuck, I have the following code which takes a mysql query and uses the result to create a google graph. <?php $str = ""; $str .= "<img src='http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chs=600x300"; $str .= "&chd=t:"; $i=0; while($row_Recordset3 = mysql_fetch_assoc($Recordset3)){ $reading_array[$i] = $row_Recordset3['reading']; $date_array[$i] = date("j/n", strtotime($row_Recordset3['date'])); $i ++; } $count=0; $count = count($reading_array); if($count>1) { $rstring = implode(",", (array_reverse($reading_array))); $dstring = implode("|", (array_reverse($date_array))); }else{ echo $count; } $str = $str.$rstring; $str = $str."&cht=lc&chxl=0:|"; // We will close the src attribute with \' and to print escape character ' we shall precede it with \ $str = $str.$dstring; $str = $str."&chxt=x,y&chds=0,25&chxr=1,0,25,5&chm=o,0044FF,0,-1,8|b,3399CC44,0,1,0&chtt=Electricity Generation for the last 35 days'"; $str = $str." >"; //we shall echo the $str that will display the graph ?> <tr><td> <?php echo $str; ?> Currently the result is http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chs=600x300&chd=t:10,6,1,11,12,7,6,2,1,1,4,10,1,5,12,3,3,6,1,6,3,3,1,5,3,1,1,6,8,5,8,8&cht=lc&chxl=0:|27/10|28/10|29/10|30/10|31/10|1/11|2/11|3/11|4/11|5/11|6/11|7/11|8/11|9/11|10/11|11/11|12/11|13/11|14/11|15/11|16/11|17/11|18/11|19/11|20/11|21/11|22/11|23/11|24/11|25/11|26/11|27/11&chxt=x,y&chds=0,25&chxr=1,0,25,5&chm=o,0044FF,0,-1,8|b,3399CC44,0,1,0&chtt=Electricity%20Generation%20for%20the%20last%2035%20days I need to make it display only every 7 dates so that they are readable but I still need the pipes in between to space out the dates correctly so they tie in with the correct point on the graph, like this where I manually removed some dates as a demo http://chart.apis.google.com/chart?chs=600x300&chd=t:10,6,1,11,12,7,6,2,1,1,4,10,1,5,12,3,3,6,1,6,3,3,1,5,3,1,1,6,8,5,8,8&cht=lc&chxl=0:|27/10|||||1/11|||||6/11|7/11|8/11|9/11|10/11|11/11|12/11|13/11|14/11|15/11|16/11|17/11|18/11|19/11|20/11|21/11|22/11|23/11|24/11|25/11|26/11|27/11&chxt=x,y&chds=0,25&chxr=1,0,25,5&chm=o,0044FF,0,-1,8|b,3399CC44,0,1,0&chtt=Electricity%20Generation%20for%20the%20last%2035%20days This is beyond my limited stills, can anyone help please? Thanks Gordon i have 2 arrays... first array of lastnames, second array of firstnames lastAry = array('smith', 'jones', 'reed', 'chan') firstAry = array('mary', 'chris', 'kim', joe', 'sara', 'tim', 'amy', 'fred') how do i loop through each lastnames and turn into a string with firstname so it looks like : smith | mary | chris jones | kim | joe reed | sara | tim chan | amy | fred |
