Coding help with 'Count'

[RON_ron]

How to get the count if any of this ($ArrayDrRes) contain the word "APPROVED"?

 

 

$Array1 = array($user1, $user2, $user3, $user4, $user5, $user6, $user7, $user8);
$Array2 = array('APPROVED');
$count3 = count( array_intersect($Array1, $Array2) );
echo $count3;

[trq]

Is that 'you want to get the total count if the value "APPROVED" appears within the array?

 

 

[RON_ron]

yes.

[trq]

$Array1 = array($user1, $user2, $user3, $user4, $user5, $user6, $user7, $user8);
if (in_array('APPROVED', $Array1)) {
  echo count($Array1);
}

Thanks thorpe!

always returns the number of fields.

 

$Array1 = array($user1, $user2, $user3, $user4, $user5, $user6, $user7, $user8);
if (in_array('APPROVED', $Array1)) {
  echo count($Array1);

}

 

This did not work either.

$Array1 = array($user1, $user2, $user3, $user4, $user5, $user6, $user7, $user8);
echo count(in_array('APPROVED', $Array1));

So.. explain what you want it to return.

[RON_ron]

It returns the TOTAL number of fields, I want only the number of fields which contain the word "APPROVED"

 

E.g.

The database only contain 2 fields with "APPROVED". Instead of 2 it always returns 8.

[trq]

It returns the TOTAL number of fields, I want only the number of fields which contain the word "APPROVED"

 

E.g.

Currently it always returns 8.

 

Yeah, that's exactly what you asked here.

 

Anyway, moving on.

 

$Array1 = array($user1, $user2, $user3, $user4, $user5, $user6, $user7, $user8);
$result = array_count_values($Array1);
if (isset($result['APPROVED'])) {
  echo $result['APPROVED'];
}

 

There's always the manual too you know?

It really is the best way to learn.
