array_count_values() does something like this. It groups together values and tells you how many times they occur in an array...
example
------------------------
$array = array(
array("foo","bar","rex"),
array("foo","bar","zip"),
array("foo","bar","zoo"),
array("foo","bar","rex"));
/* put all elements into one array */
foreach($array as $val) { $temp_array[] = $val[2];}
/* count values. see php.net/array_count_values */
$count = array_count_values($temp_array);
print"<pre>";
print_r($count);
print"</pre>";
--------------------
this produces ...
Array
(
[rex] => 2
[zip] => 1
[zoo] => 1
)
I'd like to count the number of rows in a 2 dimensional array that have the same data in their fifth field. Is there a PHP function that does this? Sizeof() appears to lack condition parameters... ...Rene --- René Fournier renefournier@yahoo.com -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net-- Jim Musil --------- Multimedia Programmer Nettmedia ------------- 212-629-0004 jim@nettmedia.com
