If Syntax

[unemployment]

Is this proper syntax?

 

if (($news['accounttyperaw'] !== 0) || ($news['accounttyperaw'] !== 1))

[Maq]

Syntax is correct, but the logic doesn't make sense.

I'm basically just trying to say if accounttyperaw is not equal to zero or 1 do something

I think you want to use &&. 

 

If $news['accounttyperaw'] is 0, then the second condition is true, if $news['accounttyperaw'] is 1, then the first condition is true, if $news['accounttyperaw'] is neither 0 or 1, then they are both true.  So your IF block will always result in TRUE.

Using your words directly, it should do what you want, although, you don't need those extra set of parenthesis around each clause.

 

<?php

if (($news['accounttyperaw'] !== 0) || ($news['accounttyperaw'] !== 1))
// Can be:
if ($news['accounttyperaw'] !== 0 || $news['accounttyperaw'] !== 1)

 

If you want to do two different things for each clause, I would do:

<?php

if ($news['accounttyperaw'] !== 0) {
  // do something
} else {
if($news['accounttyperaw'] !== 1) {
    // do something else
  }
}

$a != $b Not equal TRUE if $a is not equal to $b after type juggling.

 

<?php

if (($news['accounttyperaw'] !== 0) || ($news['accounttyperaw'] !== 1))
// Can be:
if ($news['accounttyperaw'] !== 0 || $news['accounttyperaw'] !== 1)
]

 

should be !=  with one 'equal' sign i think

 

<?php

if (($news['accounttyperaw'] != 0) || ($news['accounttyperaw'] !== 1))
// Can be:
if ($news['accounttyperaw'] != 0 || $news['accounttyperaw'] !== 1)
]

He chose to use a strict comparison, so I left it there. Really, unless it outputs some of the values as a string (1 vs '1'), then it should be fine.

some other ideas

 

<?php
if(!in_array(intval($news['accounttyperaw']), array(0, 1))){
    //does not equal 0 or 1
}

 

or

 

<?php
if(intval($news['accounttyperaw'])>1){
    //Does not equal 0 or 1
}

What you need to use is this:

if( $news['accounttyperaw'] !== 0) && $news['accounttyperaw'] !== 1 ) {
