i'm interested in the creation of new neural pathways because thats what my beloved binaural beat entrainment technology does
i'm familiar with neuroplasticity as i listened to a few audio seminars on the topic

zen changes the brain
I think brains are ``plastic'', but to a limit, it's not like everyone can do anything with the proper upbringing/education/mindset ... There are limits.
cs: sure, theoretically... but how many people face the physical limits of their plasticity or are content with drawing artificial limits because they are afraid of failure?
What? :(
@ what, bt?
What's PHP got to do with neuroplasticity?
it's just the freshie code, that's all.
my brain is not made of plastic.
Thread delivers.
The code sucks in the cleanness department.
do tell why!
<?php
$freshies = new_files();
if (count($freshies) === 0)
{
echo "<h3>there are no new photos in s3 to import.</h3>\n";
}
else if (count($freshies) > 0)
{
?>
Yeah ^^
sometimes you gotta echo stuff that looks crappy in PHP to make pretty HTML.
No need to call count() twice :)
so weasley has a different bracket coding style and doesn't like indenting html.
andre: i like adding extra cases to grab any errors. that code is followed with this:
i suppose i could do this, though:
do you prefer that?

$freshies = new_files();
$count = count($freshies);
if ($count === 0) {
...
} else if ($count > 0) {
...
} else {
...
}
Can the "else" condition possibly happen though? Can count() return anything other than non-negative numbers?

no, it can't. i need to make the cases better to handle the case when $freshies is not an array nor object.
