RE: [PHP] How to sum monetary variables
Date: Mon, 18 Jul 2011 19:00:52 -0300 From: martin.marq...@gmail.com To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] How to sum monetary variables I'm building a table (which is a report that has to be printed) with a bunch of items (up to 300 in some cases) that have unitary price (stored in a numeric(9,2) field), how many there are, and the total price for each item. At the end of the table there is a total of all the items. The app is running on PHP and PostgreSQL is the backend. The question is, how do I get the total of everything? Running it on PHP gives one value, doing a sum() on the backend gives another, and I'm starting to notice that even using python as a calculator gives me errors (big ones). Right now I'm doing the maths by hand to find out who has the biggest error, or if any is 100% accurate. Any ideas? According to the postgreSQL docs, there might occur an error as the sum() output is coerced to have a 9 digit precision (so at most 999,99 as a value), and as this is different from the PHP float interpretation, they might yield different results in case of overflow. However as python supports arbitrary integer arithmetic, overflows should not occur. At the moment, still overflow errors seem the most likely explanation. Does your table consist of very large values (occasionally perhaps)? Could you give us an example? Best regards, Jasper

Just as bottom posting (I know, it's in da rules) makes it rather difficult for humans to read thru a topic, scrolling thru ever-longer messages to get to the 'new' content. Let's solve it for all by only posting your own content and let the sum of all the messages equate to the topic. :) In fact, the posting rules state that one should only quote those parts of a message that are relevant for the post. Unfortunately, many people decide that everything is relevant, even for a long thread. Still, this should not mean we have to flee to the opposite of no quoting. You will agree that quoting your message above will be clearer than just replying without quote. Personally, I think that incorrect spelling is far more annoying than the quoting; that is, if it does not originate from incapability due to English (whether it be British or American) being not the native language, as opposed to spelling errors because of vapidity. As for the readers of this list, I am sorry to go into this non-PHP subject, but I couldn't really let this pass. Best regards, Jasper

Subject: [PHP] advice on how to build this array from an array.
hi all,
please forgive me if i do not make sense, ill try my best to explain.
i have this array or arrays.
Array ( [name] = super duplex stainless steels [id] = 30 [page_cat_id] =
10 [main_nav] = true [cat_name] = material range )
Array ( [name] = standard stainless steels [id] = 31 [page_cat_id] = 10
[main_nav] = true [cat_name] = material range )
Array ( [name] = non ferrous [id] = 32 [page_cat_id] = 10 [main_nav] =
true [cat_name] = material range )
Array ( [name] = carbon based steels [id] = 33 [page_cat_id] = 10
[main_nav] = true [cat_name] = material range )
is it possible to build an array and use the [cat_name] as the key and assign
all the pages to that cat_name?
what im trying to achieve is a category of pages but i want the cat_name as
the key to all the pages associated to it
hope i make sense
kind regards
Adam
Suppose that $arrays is your array of arrays.
Then is
$res = array();
foreach($arrays as $item){
$res[$item['cat_name']][] = $item;
}
what you are looking for?

As a second try, what happens if you add right here the line
$sGen = urlauth_gen_url($sUrl, $sParam, $nWindow, $sSalt, $sExtract, $nTime);
Because it seems as though you just declare three functions in the code
without calling them...
function urlauth_gen_url($sUrl, $sParam, $nWindow,
$sSalt, $sExtract, $nTime) {
$sToken = urlauth_gen_token($sUrl, $nWindow, $sSalt,

[PHP] Need experience with OOPHP
Just the short week that I have been subscribed to this list, I have encountered numerous code examples using the new OOPHP. A bit of a culture shock, but since I also code in Java regularly, no conceptual difficulties occur. Only thing is now, that I would like to improve my OOPHP skill by writing some useful classes; I don't see any possibilities in my current ensemble of projects and therefore was wondering if anyone had some small project for me, which I would then try to implement. Preferably, I would get some response afterwards on where to improve, thus making me a better programmer. I stress I have quite some experience with the old, procedural PHP. Anybody interested?

RE: [PHP] A Review Request
Joshua's style (Allman) also lines up. I also find tedd's particular bracing style disconcerting. I always brace myself for it when I visit his site (sorry couldn't resist ;) I'm also in the Allman camp :) Cheers, Rob. IMO, the style used by tedd just wastes one tabulation index (the zeroth). Moreover, since I mostly endow myself with the luxury of Komodo or Eclipse for finding closing braces, I have been teaching myself nothing but KR for the last few years. I like it's efficiency.

added and else clause.
while ($_parent != 0)
{
if
($num_rows 0)
{
perform some action
}
else
{
$_parent =
0;
}
}
and that solved the
problem.
Thank you, everyone for your help.

A small remark:
I think it is good programming practice to place such static if-clauses before
the while statement.
This prevents a lot of redundant checks and thus saves time.

RE: [PHP] Re: Storing indefinite arrays in database

The first one not, as I need to search and join on it. To continue your second idea with your example: Arguments: id results_id variable value 1 1 1 800 2 1 2 999 3 1 3 3.14 Results: id result 1 50 2 99 The Arguments and Results table would be filled dynamically by user content. In order to run a function, I have to do N times a join, whereas N is the number of arguments: select result from Results join Arguments as A1 join Arguments as A2 join Arguments as A3 on Results.id=A1.results_id and on Results.id=A2.results_id and on Results.id=A3.results_id and where A1.variable=1 and A1.value=800 and A2.variable=2 and A2.value=999 and A3.variable=3 and A3.value=3.14 and A1.results_id=Results.results_id and A2.results_id=Results.results_id and A3.results_id=Results.results_id Theoretically this works, but how good will be the performance if there are Thousands of entries? Anyway, I will try out. Thanks again, Ben Dear Ben, Firstly, as this is my first post to this list I apologize for any etiquette mistakes. I would like to suggest to you a different approach, which would be more dynamical: First, you would have a table which stores the number of arguments of a certain entry, something like record_id num_of_arg You would store the num_of_arg entry in a PHP variable, say $num. Then you would proceed to use CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS \'entries_.$num.\' ...some more code... to create a table which can store precisely $num arguments per record. Then you add it to that table using standard MySQL. Effectively this groups all records into tables according to $num. The only thing here is that you probably need to call the database two times: - first to get num_of_arg to be able to call onto the right table - second to get the data But as the number of arguments would go into the thousands, no huge join would be necessary. Only thing is, that you would have very wide tables (I don't know how wide MySQL can go). Creating tables on-the-fly as necessary seems to be something you could consider, but again I stress that I don't know performance details. There might be something quicker. So far for my 2c. Hopefully, it is of some help. Best regards, Jasper Mulder -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
