The function fgetcsv() returns an array.

[PHP] Repetitive answers . . .

2011-09-09 Thread Joshua Stoutenburg
I'm new to this email list . . .

But is it customary to answer a question after it's already been adequately
answered?

Not trying to step on any toes.  I just think if I were asking the question,
it would be unpleasant to continue receiving answers, especially the same
answer, after receiving one that is prompt, accurate, precise, concise, and
adequate.

Likewise, if I had answered the question -- promptly, accurately, precisely,
concisely, adequately -- I would find it equally, if not more, unpleasant to
see my answer displaced, or buried, by a wash of similar answers.

Of course, it's always good to confirm things.  But can't the absence of
objection serve as confirmation?

Does anybody feel the same way?


NOTE:  There could be lag caused by network and server technologies.
Perhaps answers arrive during the time it takes a person to prepare an
answer.  These are forgivable.

That's a good point.  The absence of objection to a provided answer
doesn't necessarily make it definitive since it could just be the
masses passed over the conversation.  Therefore, yes, duplicate
answers are a good thing.

Thanks everybody for your patience in helping this mailing list
newcomer understand how things work.

Yeah, you know, I think you are right! I'd like to answer this
question the same way, even though half a dozen have already answered
it the same way.

But let me put a spin on it:

ammo = $ammo;
}

public function flingAt($target)
{
$target->flingAlert($this->ammo);
}
}


$me = new baboon($information);
$you = new baboon();
$me->flingAt($you);


// I hope everyone finds this more humorous than offensive.

   {
echo "E";
   }
}

$ammo = "stuff";
$me = new baboon($ammo);
$you = new baboon($ammo);
$me->flingAt($you);

// :) This is pretty fun :)

I wouldn't want a text editor. I'd want an IDE.

debugging - runtime control, watches, breakpoints, call stack, etc
syntax highlighting
project level intelligence (Ctrl+Click on usage of a function,
variable, class, etc takes you to the definition, as ONE example)
phpdoc, javadoc, etc auto-completion and referencing
function/parameter hinting
integration with Git
task list generated from customizable keyword comments like TODO
multiple coding languages (PHP, CSS, Javascript, HTML, SQL, etc, etc)
find and replace within selection, file, files, directories, etc.
(with regex too)
FAST (unlike Dreambeaver)

Netbeans and Eclipse have all/many of these features.

I started out with Notepad++. It's a text editor trying really really
hard to be an IDE.

I mostly use Netbeans. But in the future I will primarily use Eclipse
as I do more work in Java, Android, and Python.

Love the IDE for projects. Never going back.

I still use Notepad++ for editing config files.
