Multiple by Count and Session Variable

[billhobbs]

I'm not sure how to approach this but here is my problem.

 

I'm using a sql statement that counts the number of users in the database. I've created a session variable named $MerchantCount and then I need to multiple that number by this scheme

 

0-9  Needs to multiple by 2.5

10-19 Needs to multiple by 5.0

20 and up needs to multiple by 7.5

 

How would I do this? Thanks...

So you are counting the number of users, and then wanting to muliply by a preset number.

 

This can be done the following way, may not be the shortest method though...

<?php
  if($MerchantCount <= '9') {
    $mutliplier = '2.5';
  } else if($MerchantCount > '9' && $MerchantCount <= '19') {
    $mutliplier = '5.0';
  } else {
    $mutliplier = '7.5';
  }

  echo $mutliplier;
?>

 

Then you can use $mulitplier to do any calculation you need to and it will be within your scheme.

 

Tell me how it goes bud.
