numbers

[YodaOfCamarilla]

How could I increase a number by 1 every time another number increases by 10?

[YodaOfCamarilla]

In other words how could I say

if($n1 is a multiple of 10){$n2+1};

Any ideas?

Just increment the number.

$#2++

<?
if($n1 == 10)
{
 print($n1++);
}
?>

the print will show up as 11 not 10.

yea i know that bit but I want to increase $n2 by 1 every time $n1 is a multiple of 10, ie 10, 20, 30, 40 etc

In other words how could I say

if($n1 is a multiple of 10){$n2+1};

Any ideas?

if(strlen($n1 / 10) == '1') { // if n1 is a multiple of 10
   $n2 += "1"; // add 1 to $n2
}

Not sure what you're doing, but that's how you'd do it.

This is how to do it...

For($Counter=1; $Counter < 101; $Counter++){//Loop from 1 to 100
 If(substr($Counter,-1) == 0){//if the last number in the number is a 0 then it's a division of 10
  $n+=1;//add 1 to the variable
  Print $n."<br>";
 }
}

What are you guys doing all this function calling and crap like that? How about:

if ( !($n % 10))
  $x++;

Or it can be simplified to:

! ($n%10)? $x++:;

So in this case

if(!($trainerid % 100))
{
$countryint++;
}

every time $trainerid increases by 100, $countryint will increase by 1?

what does the % sign do? And isnt that in itslef a function? So whats the difference..

[cgraz]

in $n % 10, the % or modulus will give you the remainder of $n divided by 10. if there is no remainder, that means it is divisible by 10.

And it's not a function, but an arithmetic operator.

in these cases $n1=10 would mean $n2=2, but I want $n2=1 when $n1=10. So would this solution work?

$n2=ceil($n1/10);

[Arc]

Well technically Math operators are also functions as they have to be read by the compiler and then processed... I agree though that if you are doing a couple hundred thousand operations your code would be a bit quicker... but our codes do exactly the same thing. Personaly i would use your code...but it's basically the difference between

 If(substr($n,-1) == 0)

Versus

If ( !($n % 10))

With no practical difference.

I agree with Arc, everything in PHP is a function or an Operator.
