...what I need to do is to great the array of values that will populate for the dropdown list. ie if Max=6, Min=0, increment=2 then I need the query to produce 0, 2, 4, 6
Just a quick note here - MySQL does not have features that would make creating such a query easy. It does not support recursive "with" subqueries (also called CTEs - Common Table Expressions). It does not support hierarchical queries. It does not provide pipelined functions or functions to generate a series of numbers.
Given all these limitations, your best bet for a database query would be to pre-populate a table of integers and use it to return the number series you want. And then again, there is the problem of how many rows the table should contain, if its load is static.
The hassle-free alternative is to fetch those three values (min, max, increment) in PHP and generate the numbers in there. I do not know PHP, but by looking at the "for" loops the others have posted here, it doesn't look that complicated.

Nevertheless, the approach mentioned above for the database query is posted here. Let's say you **know** beforehand that the min value will never be below 0 and the max value will never be above 10. Then you can populate an "iterator" table (called "numbers" in the example below) with values from 0 to 10.
The rest should be easy to comprehend:
The limitation of this method should be easy to see. If you update the max value in the dropdown table to 1000, then the final query will return incorrect result unless you load numbers at least till 1000 in the iterator table.
I'm trying to iterate a UNIX awk script that returns min/max temperature data for each day from a monthly weather data file (01_weath.dat). The temperature data is held in $5. The temps are reported each minute so each day contains 1440 temperature enteries. The below code has gotten me as far as... (5 Replies)
hi!
i have a file like the attachement.
I'd like to get for each line the min, max and average values. (there is 255 values for each line)
how can i get that ?

Hi,
I have a text file containing numbers. There are up to 6 numbers per row and I need to read them, check if they are 0 and if they are not zero check if they are within a given interval (min,max). If they exceed the max or min they should be set to max or min respectively, if they are in the... (4 Replies)
Hello Experts,
I have got a txt files which has multiple columns, I want to get the max, min and diff (max-min) for each column in the same txt file. Example:

Hi all,
I have a list of numbers. I need an awk command to find out the numbers of elements (number of numbers, sort to speak), the average value the min and max value. Reading the list only once, with awk.
Any ideas?

mysql-schema-diff - compare MySQL database schemas
SYNOPSIS
mysql-schema-diff [B<options>] B<database1> B<database2>
mysql-schema-diff --help
DESCRIPTION
mysql-schema-diff is a Perl script front-end to the CPAN <http://www.perl.com/CPAN> module MySQL::Diff
<http://search.cpan.org/search?module=MySQL::Diff> which compares the data structures (i.e. schema / table definitions) of two MySQL
<http://www.mysql.com/> databases, and returns the differences as a sequence of MySQL commands suitable for piping into mysql which will
transform the structure of the first database to be identical to that of the second (c.f. diff and patch).
Database structures can be compared whether they are files containing table definitions or existing databases, local or remote.
N.B. The program makes no attempt to compare any of the data which may be stored in the databases. It is purely for comparing the table
definitions. I have no plans to implement data comparison; it is a complex problem and I have no need of such functionality anyway.
However there is another program coldiff <http://rossbeyer.net/software/mysql_coldiff/> which does this, and is based on an older program
called datadiff which seems to have vanished off the 'net.
For PostgreSQL there are similar tools such as pgdiff <http://pgdiff.sourceforge.net/> and apgdiff <http://apgdiff.startnet.biz/>.
EXAMPLES
# compare table definitions in two files
mysql-schema-diff db1.mysql db2.mysql
# compare table definitions in a file 'db1.mysql' with a database 'db2'
mysql-schema-diff db1.mysql db2
# interactively upgrade schema of database 'db1' to be like the
# schema described in the file 'db2.mysql'
mysql-schema-diff -A db1 db2.mysql
# compare table definitions in two databases on a remote machine
mysql-schema-diff --host=remote.host.com --user=myaccount db1 db2
# compare table definitions in a local database 'foo' with a
# database 'bar' on a remote machine, when a file foo already
# exists in the current directory
mysql-schema-diff --host2=remote.host.com --password=secret db:foo bar
OPTIONS
More details to come; for now run "mysql-schema-diff --help".
INTERNALS
For both of the database structures being compared, the following happens:
o If the argument is a valid filename, the file is used to create a temporary database which "mysqldump -d" is run on to obtain the table
definitions in canonicalised form. The temporary database is then dropped. (The temporary database is named
"test_mysqldiff_temp_something" because default MySQL permissions allow anyone to create databases beginning with the prefix "test_".)
o If the argument is a database, "mysqldump -d" is run directly on it.
o Where authentication is required, the hostname, username, and password given by the corresponding options are used (type
"mysql-schema-diff --help" for more information).
o Each set of table definitions is now parsed into tables, and fields and index keys within those tables; these are compared, and the
differences outputted in the form of MySQL statements.
