how to say "inverse your value" (to a boolean)?

quick Q:
I have this inside a foreach{} that I want to alternate between on
and off so I can alternate the background-color of my 's.

$tableRowBGcolorBoolCounter != $tableRowBGcolorBoolCounter; //-boolean
on and off

I am looking thru' docs and books, but can't remember (nor find now)
in PHP how to say "inverse your value" (to a boolean).
?

TIA! -G

Re: how to say "inverse your value" (to a boolean)?

Try $tableRowBGcolorBoolCounter = !$tableRowBGcolorBoolCounter

Notice that it says '= !' instead of !='.

You can do this...

for( $b=true; ; $b = !$b )
{

}

I usually use this solution....

$types = array( 'one', 'two' );
foreach( $list as $item ) # <-- your set of (many) items
{
echo current( $types ); # <-- this prints the current class
# code
next( $types ) or reset( $types ); # and this do the magic
}

Hey! look, this solution can work with more than 2 types...
try it with many types: $types = array( 'one', 'two', three', 'four' );

Re: how to say "inverse your value" (to a boolean)?

with XOR

try this
$a = 0;
echo $a ^ 1;
$a = 1;
echo $a ^ 1;

hope that helps

RE: how to say "inverse your value" (to a boolean)?

NO! For the love of God and all that is holy, don't do that accumulator /
mod "hack".
That's sooooo 1980's. And why make the CPU do all that math for every row...

Just do this. It's quick and simple:

CSS:
.dataRow1 { background-color: #DFDFDF; }
.dataRow2 { background-color: #FFFFFF; }

foreach ($foo_array as $foo) {
?>"> ?> }

No need to initialize $dr as by default PHP will make it a boolean "false",
then each itteration, it will toggle true/false and substitute the CSS class

Use...

$dr = !$dr

if you want....

Notice: Undefined variable: dr

All variables MUST be initialized before using.
If you PHP does not complains about it you should read about error_reporting

ummmm...

RE: how to say "inverse your value" (to a boolean)?

Then YOU have more aggressive error_reporting than the default setting
turned on. You might consider turning it down a notch. NOTICEs are basically
useless and bloat your code IMHO -- and apparently the PHP devs too as per
this...

http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.error-reporting.php

// Report all errors except E_NOTICE
// This is the default value set in php.ini
error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);

Don't tell me what to do! You're not my father! ;-)

I have not come across this construct before today, from you guys.

http://us3.php.net/manual/en/language.operators.comparison.p hp

Find "Ternary" on that page.

It's a shortened conditional:

cond ? true : false

Pretty much the best operator ever invented IMHO. And Since PHP 5.3, it =
is
possible to leave out the middle part of the ternary operator. =
Expression
expr1 ?: expr3 returns expr1 if expr1 evaluates to TRUE, and expr3
otherwise. Awesome!

Also, Adam Randall set up us the bomb. ;-)

No...not zerowing...no...

But yes, the ternary operator is the bomb, which you can get carried
away with. Daevid knows what I mean :)

Wow, were to start with all the problems in the above code:
1. Short tags?
2. Not using echo or print. You actually recommend breaking in/out of php?
3. Using uninitialized variables (I run with the E_ALL crowd)
4. Using the and not the ... Hmmm

another (neat|strange)+ way I use the above is like so



$arr = range(1, 10);

$i = 0;

foreach ( $arr AS $row ) {

Yes, but recent versions also have the following recommended settings:

; error_reporting
; Development Value: E_ALL | E_STRICT
; Production Value: E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED

; display_errors
; Development Value: On
; Production Value: Off

A change request just came in - the interaction designer wants every

I tend to do something like this:

$count = 0;
foreach($foo_array as $foo)
{
$class = ($count % 3 == 0)?'class="thirdRow"':'';
print "$foo";
}

You only need to give one row the class, as you style up all the rows
and only change the row that needs to change.

Re: how to say "inverse your value" (to a boolean)?

seems they changing idears on the fly? could it be that the designer is a
smal ugly person while u a a good looking ladykiller ?

on that background I would design a function where u can change ti what ever
u want on the fly something like this

var $a;
function alternate( $a, $_b=array( "red", "red" ,"green" ,... ) {
if( count( $_b ) > $a ) {
return $_b[ $a++ ] ;
}
$a=0;
return $_b[ $a++ ] ;
}

so now u can do what ever anybody wants on just putting the right values
into the array

cheers

A change request just came in - the interaction designer wants every

However, my solution (after reading others) is for an alternating row
color (a boolean operation).

The problem was NOT making every third row a different color or
making every row a different color. Those problems would require
different solutions.

There is nothing wrong with embedding php within html, which is
really a misnomer because it's the php interpreter that's sending the
resultant html to the browser. It is not sending php snip-its for the
browser to handle. So, embedding code such as:



Is a valid statement that works. It would be nice if you initialize
the $i value, but it will work either way.

My solution, provided via the above link, is a valid solution.

Cheers,

tedd

A change request just came in - the interaction designer wants every
third line to have a grey background, instead of every second line.

# before was $styles = array( 'even', 'odd' );
# after new requirements it is...
$styles = array( 'white', 'white', 'gray' );

Re: how to say "inverse your value" (to a boolean)?

What a lot of good ideas spawned from the OP!
I am learning many things,.. while also actually working (paying
bills), so I regularly have to just go with what I know well.

Anyway, I already have the forearch { loop (for other reasons it is
necessary), and I only needed one color to alternate with the default
white.. so I used this:

forearch { ...
$tableRowBGcolorBoolCounter = !$tableRowBGcolorBoolCounter; //-boolean
on and off

(which then sticks in one CSS class or another for that .

thanks for everyone's feedback.

what do you mean? I must have neglected to include more of the
relevant code to show you that it IS working just fine. I will
certainly explain more if you ask.. but the whole point of me
starting the thread was just to be reminded how to inverse a boolean
var's value. Tony answered me; I am happy. I assume you don't want
me (the newbie) to show how I have it working. (?)

He's pointing out a typo... "forearch" instead of "foreach" :)

Nothing wrong with them. Do yourself a test. There is zero speed difference
in a page. It makes your code cleaner and easier to read, plus less
kilobytes you have to pull from the hard drive, therefore faster pages.

Are you sure you're not confused with "short_open_tags" ie. -- which I

The vast majority of your page is output in little fragments like this, so
why not keep it clean and easy to read. Why would you purposely choose to be
more verbose than you need to be for something as basic as "print".

> You actually recommend breaking in/out of php?

Hell yeah I do. THAT is one of the MAIN reasons to use PHP. Otherwise, why
not just render your whole page with a bunch of $html .= '...';
tags and print $html at the end. Welcome to the year 2000 my friend.

You're probably the same kind of person that does this crap:

if ($foo == true)
{
echo "A";
}
else
{
echo "B";
}

(complete with extra braces and checking for 'true' explicitly, but not
using === in such cases)

Rather than a much cleaner, easier to read/write and more concise:

I'm so happy for you. Do you have a membership card and everything? That's
your own masochistic fault then. I run with the

> 4. Using the and not the ... Hmmm

Maybe you're new to how HTML works, but if you want to highlight a ROW (as
the OP did), then you put the background color on the highest parent that it
applies to. Hey imagine that, there is a TR tag which stands for TABLE ROW
tag. Seems obvious to me. This reduces your page size in kilobytes, makes a
much cleaner HTML rendering to read in source, and is the PROPER way to do
it.

Glad you mention this. If you look at the note for the short-open-tag
option, it says:

Note: This directive also affects the shorthand " identical to " to be on.

So, you are saying you do not like to promote the use of short_open_tag,
but in your examples of how to write your code, you use them because it
shortens your code, etc...

So, which is it, do you like using short_open_tag or not??? Because
"
>> 2. Not using echo or print.

Yours requires short_open_tag to be on and uses them, mine doesn't

Plus, I would never do this in side of HTML to begin with. If I was in
the middle of a script, then I would have PHP echo the entire HTML
portion of the code rather then breaking out of PHP - do some HTML -
break in to PHP and echo a variable - break out and finish the HTML.

So, your example above would tell me that you are the type of guy that
would echo all your HTML code from within your nested php functions? hmmm

Breaking in/out of PHP all the time, what a mess of code that would be.

I have tried tasting that soup before. I didn't like it...

Actually, my crap would look like this:

if ( $foo ) {
echo 'A';
} else {
echo 'B';
}

No double quotes (no variables need to be worked with)
Open curly bracket on the end of the previous line
I actually wrote a script that will take your example and turn it
into my crap

I don't think I am causing myself any pain.

clean !== use uninitialized variables
efficient !== squelching the NOTICE(s) that get generated by your code
that uses uninitialized variables. Not having them be generate in the
first place would be better.

I have found, in a number of cases, that using only the tag
doesn't work all the time.

I side with Jim on this. I never use short tags and write similar crap.

It should work ALL the time, but sometimes inheritance overrides what
you think is happening. In such cases, try adding !important to the
rule and I think you'll see what you expect.

Re: how to say "inverse your value" (to a boolean)?

thats why I decided years ago to write myself a little bunch of classes for
the html tags which gives me the ability to have PHP only code, very nice,
no errors and my outputs dont even need Tidy pure XHTML

i find these idear of mixing html and php as spagetty, using divs for tables
as something what facirs do,

no problems with unexpected header outputs, no small fat grafic designer can
make my live difficult, I can change evrything on the fly.

pure OOP

one final echo $page->toHtml();

put a candle for the invention of OOP ...
better as sex
makes the nights fun

consider this guys
