Bug #10653 Updated: loop limiters

ID: 10653 Updated by: cynic Reported By: tboothby@felfel.com Old-Status: Open Status: Bogus Bug Type: Feature/Change Request Operating system: PHP Version: 4.0.5 Assigned To: Comments: hm, would you also want while23859() ? also, would for1000($i=0;$i<count($search);$i++) {...} loop 1000 times even if $search contained less than 1000 values? plainly, you have this kind of functionality in any language. in PHP, your examples would look like this: $i = 0 ; while( 100 > $i ) { $i++ ; $rec = mysql_fetch_row( $res ) ... } and for( $i = 0 ; 1000 > $i && count( $search ) > $i ; $i++ ) ... Previous Comments: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- [2001-05-03 17:49:53] tboothby@felfel.com Looping structures should (IMO) all have a limiting variant. For example, while100($rec=mysql_fetch_row($res)) {...} Would only loop 100 times for1000($i=0;$i<count($search);$i++) {...} Would loop 1000 times, etc. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION!
