PHP function Edit on GitHub ✎

Returns the total number of rows changed, deleted, inserted, or matched by the last statement executed

Description

Oop

int|stringmysqli_stmt->affected_rows

Procedural

mysqli_stmt_affected_rows(mysqli_stmt $statement): int|string

Returns the number of rows affected by the INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE query. Works like mysqli_stmt_num_rows() for SELECT statements.

Parameters

Return Values

An integer greater than zero indicates the number of rows affected or retrieved. Zero indicates that no records were updated for an UPDATE statement, no rows matched the WHERE clause in the query or that no query has yet been executed. -1 indicates that the query returned an error or that, for a SELECT query, mysqli_stmt_affected_rows() was called prior to calling mysqli_stmt_store_result().

Note

If the number of affected rows is greater than the maximum PHP int value, the number of affected rows will be returned as a string value.
