mysql - Can PHP 5.4 run on PHP 5.3 configured server -

-

first of all, novice web developer.

my question "a website developed php 5.4 can run on php 5.3 configured server?"

(detail description) configure myself apache 2.4, mysql 5.6 , php 5.4.12 on windows. everything's ok. errors occur when changed website folder machine configured wampserver. wampserver configured apache 2.2.11, php 5.3 , mysql 5.1.36.

i install mysql 5.6 on machine , database connected. "parse error occur code" such

$country = mysql_fetch_row(querymysql("----"))[0];

in addition, showed other errors such "table 'emp.productcateogry' doesn't exist".

please, give me suggestions.

the short answer is: no, should not expect to, if using new features of php 5.4 within code.

the specific error referring with:

parse error occur code

is because line 

$country = mysql_fetch_row(querymysql("----"))[0];

is using new feature:

function array dereferencing

which, prior php 5.4, had use temporary variable in order access specific index of return, ie:

$country_temp = mysql_fetch_row(querymysql("----")); $country = $country_temp[0];

now, being novice developer, there few things should note. first , important being mysql_ functions deprecated giving note:

this extension deprecated of php 5.5.0, , removed in future. instead, mysqli or pdo_mysql extension should used.

in other words, use pdo if wanting use prepared statements, or mysqli if not. advantage of using pdo , obtaining 1 column in example code once connected, can use function pdostatement::fetchcolumn() obtain 1 column trying now.

anyways, hope explanation helps understand why can't go php 5.3.x if using specific php 5.4 abilities - , understanding of how improve database connection , available functions can desired result without using "array dereferencing" provided php 5.4. ^^

c++ - Function signature as a function template parameter -

-
i'd use function signature template argument. works great classes, when try same trick function templates, msvc throws error: error c2768: 'func' : illegal use of explicit template arguments here's code: template <typename signature> void func(); template <typename r, typename a1> void func<r(a1)>(); what should make work? you cannot partially specialize function template, not supported language. can create partially specialized class template static member function, , possibly trampoline function instantiate class template , invoke static function. something this: namespace detail { template<typename signature> struct helper; template<typename r, typename a1> struct helper<r(a1)> { static void call() { // stuff r , a1... } }; } template<typename signature> void func() { detail::helper<signature>::call(); }

algorithm - What are some ways to combine a number of (potentially incompatible) sorted sub-sets of a total set into a (partial) ordering of the total set? -

-
i have sorting problem i'm pretty sure doesn't have canonical "answer" - has number of different approaches, each pros/cons. i'm interested in hearing different approaches. suppose bunch of people {p_i | i=1,...,m} ranking favorite ice cream flavors. in total there n different flavors, single person p_i ranks n_i << n flavors or familiar with. i'm interested in combining these sub-rankings plausible overall ranking of n flavors. for concrete situation: m , n both 1000 (by coincidence), , each n_i 20 . can assume there's enough overlap in flavors people rank such no flavor "isolated". again, i'm interested in hearing different ways approach this, if there isn't single clear answer. thanks! one way approach problem construct directed cyclic graph representing of constraints on ordering of elements. nodes in graph represent different elements compared , have edge first node second node if had ranked first e
