Hey, who are you callin' names?!?

% I need to evaluate a number if greater than 7 and add a value per increment.
Greater than seven is easy. Adding a value is easy. Per increment can
be a little tricky but we'll assume for the moment that the window is 1.
The code
$sum = 67 ; # starting value
$trg = 7 ; # trigger value
$add = 6 ; # what we add each time
$num = 10 ; # what we're evaluating (hardcoded here!)
for ( $num ; $trg < $num ; $trg++ )
{ $sum += $add ; }
print "when num = $num, sum = $sum\n" ;
should do for a starting point, though, and produces
bash-2.05a$ php -q /tmp/inc.php
when num = 10, sum = 85
bash-2.05a$ php -q /tmp/inc.php
when num = 20, sum = 145
bash-2.05a$ php -q /tmp/inc.php
when num = 7, sum = 67
bash-2.05a$ php -q /tmp/inc.php
when num = 1, sum = 67
when run.
Extra credit if you write it as a recursive function :-)
% I'm frazzled and can't think straight.
You can't ask straight, either :-) Give us more details!

% Thanks Guys!
