mysql计入PHP变量

Question

假设我们有以下查询：

SELECT DISTINCT COUNT(`users_id`) FROM `users_table`;

该查询将返回表中的用户数。我需要将此值传递给PHP变量。我正在使用这个：

$sql_result = mysql_query($the_query_from_above) or die(mysql_error());

if($sql_result)
{
    $nr_of_users = mysql_fetch_array($sql_result);
}
else
{
    $nr_of_users = 0;
}

请在您认为必要的地方更正我的代码。

最好的方法。您如何建议这样做？

像这样：

// Changed the query - there's no need for DISTINCT
// and aliased the count as "num"
$data = mysql_query('SELECT COUNT(`users_id`) AS num FROM `users_table`') or die(mysql_error());

// A COUNT query will always return 1 row
// (unless it fails, in which case we die above)
// Use fetch_assoc for a nice associative array - much easier to use
$row = mysql_fetch_assoc($data);

// Get the number of uses from the array
// 'num' is what we aliased the column as above
$numUsers = $row['num'];
