Append two lines of text to php.ini in the entire directory tree.e

I am looking to write a script that will read the php.ini files on my web host. If the two lines do exist do nothing. If not append two lines to the end of it then move on to the next directory and open the next php.ini file.
I have the beginning of one that was given to me on another web site but the web site will only allow me to comment on the answer not ask any more, to ask more I would have to start another topic ?! oh well.
what I have almost works. I understand how most of it works but not all. Here it is;

Code:

#!/bin/bash
# path='/path'
line1='upload_max_filesize = "40M";'
line2='post_max_size = "40M";'
while read f; do
    if ! [ "$(grep "$line1" "$f")" ] && ! [ "$(grep "$line2" "$f")" ]; then
        echo "$line1" >> "$f"
        echo "$line2" >> "$f"
    fi
done < <(find -type f -name 'php.ini')
# done < <(find "$path" -type f -name 'php.ini')

it does work 99.98% but why?
I know the if ! means the first grep needs to be false and the && ! means the second needs to be false if false echo line1 and line2 but whats to determine the placement of those two lines at the end of the file? also how does the done << work ?
I kind understand the find statement. My BASH skills are pretty much limited to navigation and after playing around with the sed command I am a bit weary of diving in head first.

LEARN ABOUT PHP

ini_get

INI_GET(3)								 1								INI_GET(3)

ini_get - Gets the value of a configuration option

SYNOPSIS

       string ini_get (string  $varname)

DESCRIPTION

	Returns the value of the configuration option on success.

PARAMETERS

	      o $varname
		- The configuration option name.

RETURN VALUES

	Returns  the value of the configuration option as a string on success, or an empty string for null values. Returns FALSE if the configura-
       tion option doesn't exist.

EXAMPLES

       Example #1

	      A few ini_get(3) examples

	      <?php
	      /*
	      Our php.ini contains the following settings:

	      display_errors = On
	      register_globals = Off
	      post_max_size = 8M
	      */

	      echo 'display_errors = ' . ini_get('display_errors') . "
";
	      echo 'register_globals = ' . ini_get('register_globals') . "
";
	      echo 'post_max_size = ' . ini_get('post_max_size') . "
";
	      echo 'post_max_size+1 = ' . (ini_get('post_max_size')+1) . "
";
	      echo 'post_max_size in bytes = ' . return_bytes(ini_get('post_max_size'));

	      function return_bytes($val) {
		  $val = trim($val);
		  $last = strtolower($val[strlen($val)-1]);
		  switch($last) {
		      // The 'G' modifier is available since PHP 5.1.0
		      case 'g':
			  $val *= 1024;
		      case 'm':
			  $val *= 1024;
		      case 'k':
			  $val *= 1024;
		  }

		  return $val;
	      }

	      ?>

	      The above example will output something similar to:

	      display_errors = 1
	      register_globals = 0
	      post_max_size = 8M
	      post_max_size+1 = 9
	      post_max_size in bytes = 8388608

NOTES

       Note

	      When querying boolean values

	       A boolean ini value of off will be returned as an empty string or "0" while a boolean ini value of on will be returned as "1".  The
	      function can also return the literal string of INI value.

       Note

	      When querying memory size values

	       Many  ini  memory  size	values, such as upload_max_filesize, are stored in the php.ini file in shorthand notation. ini_get(3) will
	      return the exact string stored in the php.ini file and NOT its integer equivalent. Attempting normal arithmetic functions  on  these
	      values will not have otherwise expected results. The example above shows one way to convert shorthand notation into bytes, much like
	      how the PHP source does it.
