Once again I need a phpush.

Hi Sorry to have to do this but I need a little advice again. I am getting fairly ok at particular things but still a dummy when it comes to putting things together the right way for the cleanest operation of the overall routine. I am working on a routine to input figures into people's records.. One figure/field per person/record within the table. Would it be best to input each figure singly and let the php/mysql do its thing for each one individually, before looping back for the second input? Or would it be easier/smarter/smoother, etc. to input all figs for all people into an array and somehow let that array feed the info into each record? I'm looking for the simplest script of course but I don't want it to sit and wait between each input, either. There may be anywhere from 1 to 100 records to update in this manner. Thanks in advance.
