The Solution Rating System
|
|
| With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating. - The Grade of the Solution
- The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
- The Number of Author and Expert Comments
- The Number of Experts Contributing
- The Feedback of the Community
Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site. If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support. Thank you! |

Asked by adamlund in PHP Scripting Language
Hi All,
I have a form that allows users to enter a list of surnames plus initials. Each surname can have 5 initials associated with it. The form results are posted into a single array. The first 6 positions within the array are associated with the first person's surname and initials and this then repeats for each extra person added. For example, if these two people were entered on the form: Smith J S and Jones W P K, then the array would be as shown in the code snippet. I need to be able to loop around the names and initials in such a way that I need to be able to associate J and S with Smith and W, P and K with Jones. I would like to do this using a two dimensional array. Hence the first dimension would be surname and the second would be an array of initials. Ideally, the code could ignore putting any NULL initials into the second array.
I have tried multiple ways of doing this and keep failing each time! Any help would be very much appreciated.
Many thanks,
Adam

// Array generated by inputing two names: Smith J S and Jones W P K.
Array ( [0] => Smith [1] => J [2] => S [3] => [4] => [5] => [6] => Jones [7] => W [8] => P [9] => K [10] => [11] => ) 12Array ( [0] => [1] => )
// Would be great if I could turn into two dimensional array so if I called $authors[0][1] is would get "S".
