ID: 15946 Updated by: sander@php.net Reported By: aubieweb@rogers.com Status: Feedback -Bug Type: Output Control +Bug Type: Math related Operating System: Windows 2000 PHP Version: 4.1.1 New Comment: (reclassified) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-08 06:20:38] sander@php.net Are you completely sure that it's an error in PHP and not in your algorithm? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-03-07 22:55:18] aubieweb@rogers.com I wrote a script which output Pascal's triangle and then showed the numbers which were divisible by a certain number in a different colour. At first, this works fine. Then after the 20th row or so, the % operator starts outputting incorrect numbers. For example, 37 % 4 returns 1. 24 % 4 returns 3. When those numbers are checked on their own, it works fine. In the loops though, it starts giving incorrect information after 20 rows. You can see this at www.alkaline2.com/triangle.php CODE <? $rows--; for ($r = 0; $r <= $rows; $r++) { if ($hidenum) print "<table cellpadding='0' cellspacing='0' border='1' bordercolor='#000088' borderstyle='solid'><tr>\n"; if (!$hidenum) print "<table cellpadding='2' cellspacing='1' border='0'><tr>\n"; for ($i = 0; $i <= $r; $i++) { $num = factorial($r)/(factorial($r - $i) * factorial($i)); if ($divisor > 0 && $num % $divisor == 0) { $bgcolor='#ff0000'; } else { $bgcolor='#444444'; } if (!$hidenum) print "<td bgcolor='$bgcolor'><span class='text'>$num</span></td>\n"; $check = $num % $divisor; if ($hidenum && $divisor > 0 && $num % $divisor == 0) print "<td><img src='red.gif' width='$size' height='$size' alt='$num % $divisor = $check'></td>\n"; if ($hidenum && $divisor > 0 && $num % $divisor != 0) print "<td><img src='grey.gif' width='$size' height='$size' alt='$num % $divisor = $check'></td>\n"; if ($hidenum && $divisor == 0) print "<td><img src='grey.gif' width='$size' height='$size' alt='$num % $divisor = $check'></td>\n"; } print "</tr></table>"; } function factorial($x) { $total = 1; for ($i = $x; $i > 1; $i--) $total = $total * $i; return $total; } ?> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=15946&edit=1
