How to iterate through array?

[deko]

I have a file that contains the output of time(). A different time is on
each line of the file, and each line represents a visit to the website. I
want to calculate the total visits per day, month and year. So, I dump the
file into an array, and then iterate through the array testing each element
and incrementing a counter for each respective time period.

But what is the best way to iterate through the array? The foreach($av)
does not seem to be working. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

$viscounter = 'viscounter';
// this is all that's in the file (will be hundreds of lines):
1089828547
1089828548
1089828549
1089828550

$av = file($viscounte r);
$v24h = 0;
$v30d = 0;
$v365d = 0;
foreach($av) // ????????
{
if($av>time()-(3600*24))
{
++$v24h;
}
if($av>time()-(3600*24*30))
{
++$v30d;
}
if($av>time()-(3600*24*365))
{
++$v365d;
}
}
echo "<br>v24h=".$v2 4h;
echo "<br>v30d=".$v3 0d;
echo "<br>v365d=".$v 365d;

I think I got it:

$avs = file($viscounte r);
$v24h = 0;
$v30d = 0;
$v365d = 0;
foreach ($avs as $val)
{
if($val>(time()-(3600*24)))
{
++$v24h;
}
if($val>(time()-(3600*24*30)))
{
++$v30d;
}
if($val>(time()-(3600*24*365)))
{
++$v365d;
}
}
echo "<br>v24h = ".$v24h;
echo "<br>v30d = ".$v30d;
echo "<br>v365d = ".$v365d;

seems to be working... :)

You've used foreach() incorrectly. You must give the foreach() function a
variable to fill with each item in the $av array. So to correct your code:

$viscounter = 'viscounter';
$av = file($viscounte r);
$v24h = 0;
$v30d = 0;
$v365d = 0;
foreach($av as $visit) // ????????
{
if($visit>time( )-(3600*24))
{
++$v24h;
}
if($visit>time( )-(3600*24*30))
{
++$v30d;
}
if($visit>time( )-(3600*24*365))
{
++$v365d;
}
}
echo "<br>v24h=".$v2 4h;
echo "<br>v30d=".$v3 0d;
echo "<br>v365d=".$v 365d;
