Hello everyone, just got a query regarding calculating
I'm building a form and depending on how you fill it in you are given a score, currently i am using if/else statements.
Here is an example
$age is taken from the database after the form is completed (persons age)
$mc is taken from the database after the form is completed (regarding a car crash in the last 3 years)
$age = say im 21 for example the outcome would be 2.5
$mc = I havent crashed my car in the past 3 years so my score would be 0.5
Can these two results be added together giving a total of 3.0?

<?php
$age = 21
if ($age >61)
{
echo '0.5';
}
elseif (($age >= 51) && ($age <= 60))
{
echo '1.0';
}
elseif ($age <= 21)
{
echo '2.5';
}
elseif (($age >= 31) && ($age <= 50))
{
echo '1.5';
}
elseif ($age >= 60)
{
echo '1.5';
}
elseif (($age >= 22) && ($age <= 30))
{
echo '2.0';
}
?>
<BR>
<?php
$mc = 0
if ($mc == 0)
{
echo '0.5';
}
elseif (($mc >= 1) && ($mc <= 2))
{
echo '1.0';
}
elseif ($mc >2)
{
echo '1.5';
}
?>
