Here's a little function I wrote that checks if a number is divisible by another number.
function check_divisible($number, $divider) {
if(ceil($number/$divider) == $number/$divider) {
return TRUE;
} else {
return FALSE;
}
}
Useage would be as so.
$bigger_number=10;
$smaller_number=2;
if(check_divisible($bigger_number, $smaller_number)) {
echo "$bigger_number is divisible by $smaller_number!";
} else {
echo "$bigger_number is NOT divisible by $smaller_number!";
}
It's possible uses would be for:
Every 3rd, fourth, fifth, or whatever row in a table could be treated uniquely
