I am switching to PDO and can't find an equivalent to mysql_num_rows.

Am I missing something silly?

Or is there a change of thinking needed for PDO?

How should I determine how many rows a query returned?

PDO returns an array, sizeof/count will get you home
I would like to know how many rows I am working with before starting to fetch.

Also fetchall, does not seem to have a style that returns each column value just once. I see this ugly thing in the manual:

Fetch all of the remaining rows in the result set:
Array
(
   [0] => Array
       (
           [NAME] => pear
           [0] => pear
           [COLOUR] => green
           [1] => green
       )

   [1] => Array
       (
           [NAME] => watermelon
           [0] => watermelon
           [COLOUR] => pink
           [1] => pink
       )

)

If I could get the column offsets only, without the column names I would be 
very happy.
