I have a following function in php:
function addEntryHere($day, $numberId, $numberOfTexts, $entries) {
foreach($entries as $entry) {
if($entry->$day == $day) {
$entry->addToEntry($numberId, $numberOfTexts);
}
}
$newEntry = new Entry($day);
$newEntry->addToEntry($standId, $numberOfTexts);
array_push($entries, $newEntry);
//print_r($entries);
}
and when I invoke this function in a loop:
while($row = mysqli_fetch_array($result)) {
echo "count table before: " . count($entries);
for($i=23; $i<26; $i++) {
addEntryHere($i, $row[1], $row[2], $entries);
//print_r($entries);
}
echo "count table after: " . count($entries);
}
I see only:
count table before: 0
count table after: 0
My addToEntry
method is quite simple:
function addToEntry($numberId, $numberOfTexts) {
switch($numberId) {
case 1: $this->number1+= $numberOfTexts; break;
case 2: $this->number2+= $numberOfTexts; break;
}
}
So why do I get constantly the output 0, even though there is some data in the $result
? I've decided to pass the array $entries
to the addEntryHere
method because I couldn't refer to it in the method, even though I thought it has a global scope...
======= EDIT
after following the watcher's suggestion I modified my code, but then this line:
if($entry->$day == $day) {
throws me the error:
Notice: Undefined property: Entry::$23
and the browser prints such errors many, many times (since it's in the while loop). What might be the problem here?
