Re: daily availability chart array

for($day=0; $day<7;$day++) { // $day[0] is mon; $day[1] is tues; ... foreach($avail[$day] as $av) {

      //do your calculation here

I need to create a daily availability chart and currently am using multidimensional arrays to assign which day/timeslot is chosen.

My problem

is that in doing so, I have to create 7 "foreach" statements to

go through

each of the days to pick out the timeslot values. ie. avail[mon][1] (morning) avail[tues][2] (afternoon) avail[wed][4] (evening) avail[thurs][8] (night) etc. (the above data is taken from a user input form, user can choose 1 or all timeslots) I need to loop through these values for bitwise calculation and

comparison

to a mysql db field. The user can have multiple choices in the

same day so

the obtained bit values would have to be added accordingly. Is there any way to get around using 7 loops to create the bit value? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated! Jason
