Comparison

[maliary]

 

Hello,

 

I would like to compare 3 different time stamps  ts1,ts2,ts3, and increment the value with the most recent or greatest time stamp.

 

I keep missing out a comparison, could any one check this out.

 

This is what I have

if (ts1 > ts2)
  { 
  if (ts1>ts3)
      {
     ts2++;
    }
}
elseif (ts2>ts3)
{  
   (ts2>ts1)
     {
      ts2++
      }
}
elseif (ts3>ts2)
{
   ts3>ts2
{
    ts3++
}

}

 

What more comparisons should I make ?

Proof of concept. If you're not sure what I'm doing let me know

 

<?php

$ts1 = rand(0, 1000);
$ts2 = rand(0, 1000);
$ts3 = rand(0, 1000);

$array = array( $ts1, $ts2, $ts3 );

print_r( $array );

rsort( $array, SORT_NUMERIC );

echo $array[0];

?>

here is something quick. It uses the max command

 

<?php
$ts1 = 333333;
$ts2 = 444444;
$ts3 = 555555;
$values = array('ts1'=> $ts1, 'ts2' => $ts2, 'ts3' => $ts3);
$max = max($values);
$s = array_search($max, $values);
$$s++;
echo "ts1 = $ts1, ts2 = $ts2, ts3 = $ts3";
?>

max() is the way to go.
