Good answer, but regarding the documentation of PHP copy pasted from php chm file there are no "<" logical operator Example Name Result $a and $b And TRUE if both $a and $b are TRUE. $a or $b Or TRUE if either $a or $b is TRUE. $a xor $b Xor TRUE if either $a or $b is TRUE, but not both. ! $a Not TRUE if $a is not TRUE. $a && $b And TRUE if both $a and $b are TRUE. $a || $b Or TRUE if either $a or $b is TRUE. comparisson operator yes Example Name Result $a == $b Equal TRUE if $a is equal to $b. $a === $b Identical TRUE if $a is equal to $b, and they are of the same type. (PHP 4 only) $a != $b Not equal TRUE if $a is not equal to $b. $a <> $b Not equal TRUE if $a is not equal to $b. $a !== $b Not identical TRUE if $a is not equal to $b, or they are not of the same type. (PHP 4 only) $a < $b Less than TRUE if $a is strictly less than $b. $a > $b Greater than TRUE if $a is strictly greater than $b. $a <= $b Less than or equal to TRUE if $a is less than or equal to $b. $a >= $b Greater than or equal to TRUE if $a is greater than or equal to $b. ($a%$b)-> arithmetic then followed by a comparison? < 3 meaning 0,1,2 is this a bug?.... are there more like this?...can anyone give me a book that can show me different tricks? thank you --- In php-objects@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, José Miguel Santibáñez A. <jms@...> wrote: > > > > Can this be explained? > > how was < used as what kind of operator? > > thanks again for ur help > > % is Modulus operator: > $a % $b = Remainder of $a divided by $b. > > < is logical operator: less than > > > -- > José Miguel Santibáñez > jms@... > PHP Data object relational mapping generator http://www.metastorage.net/ Yahoo!
