Calculation with if statement

[RON_ron]

Please help me calculate this according to the "if" condition.

 

$scoreM['newtag'] + $scoreU['newPrice']

 

$SomeVar = 'currentPrice';
$queryU =  "SELECT * FROM db1 WHERE bookprice = '".$SomeVar."'";
$resultU = mysql_query($queryU);
$scoreU = mysql_fetch_assoc($resultU);
echo $scoreU['newPrice'];
echo $scoreU['weeklyScr'];
echo $scoreU['priceX'];

////
$WinVar = 'additionalAmount';
$query =  "SELECT * FROM db2 WHERE booklist = '".$WinVar."'";
$result = mysql_query($query);
$scoreM = mysql_fetch_assoc($result);
echo $scoreM['newtag'];  
echo $scoreM['priceY']; 

if($scoreU['priceX']== $scoreM['priceY'])
{
$udatedValue = ($scoreM['newtag'] - $scoreU['newPrice']);
echo(udatedValue);
}
else{
$udatedValue = ($scoreM['newtag'] + $scoreU['newPrice']);
echo(udatedValue);
}

It works as coded.  If you need additional help you will need to specify how you want the calculations to work.

Thanks jcbones. But the code did not give me the results I wanted. This echos "udatedValue" nothing else.

 

Here's what I'm trying to achieve.

 

I want to check if the $scoreM['newtag'] and $scoreU['newPrice'] are the same.

 

If it is similar

 

then I want to get the difference between $scoreM['newtag'] and $scoreU['newPrice']

 

if it's not similar

 

then I want to get the total between $scoreM['newtag'] and $scoreU['newPrice']

Is this code copy/pasted directly from your php file?  If so, it should be throwing errors.  The echo statements don't have dollar signs in front of the vars.

 

echo(udatedValue);

 

Should be:

echo($udatedValue);
