First PHP application, well after hello world! Not sure the best way?

[Kutakizukari]

There are ten list or bookmarks from Prof. Horner's Bible-Reading System found (http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=46416541831) each having set number of books from the Bible. One is to read ten chapters a day, one chapter from each of the bookmarks.

 

Type in what day you are on and the program will show you on each of the lists as to what chapter you are suppose to be on.

 

Also want to show statistics that will display how many times the Bible has been read with a break down of all 66 books of the Bible.

 

Started a git respo http://github.com/Kutakizukari/Prof-Horners-Bible-Reading-System

//List 1

$Matthew = 28;

on the second day it should all say Chapter two but Matthew reaches day 28 it should move on to Mark Chapter 1 and so on and so on and with each bookmark list.

I would use an array probably. A Switch Case would be nice too and more organized.

If you need help let me know. This forum might just have your answers allready ; ) just look for the text in bold

Good luck m8,

Because I love the Bible, I will help you get started.  Note, I only included the first 2 list, you will need to write the rest out yourself, just follow the guidelines, and make them the same as the first two.

 

<?php
//Build of the list array is:  $list[ListNumber][MaxChapters] = 'Book Name';
//List1
$list[1][28] = 'Matthew';
$list[1][16] = 'Mark';
$list[1][24] = 'Luke';
$list[1][21] = 'John';

//List 2
$list[2][50] = 'Genesis';
$list[2][40] = 'Exodus';
$list[2][27] = 'Leviticus';
$list[2][36] = 'Numbers';
$list[2][34] = 'Deuteronomy';

$day = (isset($_GET['day'])) ? (int)$_GET['day'] : 1;
$day_count = $day;
foreach($list as $k => $v) { 
foreach($v as $kk => $vv) {
@$count += $kk;
if($day <= $count) {
	$todays_reading[] = $vv . ' ' . $day_count; 
	break;
}
$day_count -= $kk;
  }
  $count = 0; 
  $day_count = $day;
}

echo implode("<br />\n",$todays_reading);
?>

<form action="" method="get">
<label for="day">Day Number</label><input type="text" name="day" value="" /></form>
