get sum of all result

[funbinod]

i want to sum each value from the retrieved values from an array. but i'm failing in this

 

like, i get $balance for each $aid

$ttl = 0while ($r = $q->fetch_array) {    // ..................    // ..................    $aid = $r['aid'];    $balance = $r['balance'];}$ttl += $balance;$totamtarr[ $aid ] = $balance;$runSum = 0;foreach($totamtarr as $clamt) {    $runSum += $clamt;    $total[] = $runSum;}echo $total;

but this $total say -> "Array to string conversion in.................."

 

please guide.

 

thanks in advance...

$total is an array, what do you expect to happen when you echo it?

i expect to get sum of all $balance that i get from query

It's an array of values though. PHP doesn't have a rule that if you print an array of numbers it's going to add all the numbers up and print that. It's just an array. If you want to print the sum of the numbers then there's a function for that:http://php.net/manual/en/function.array-sum.php
