$data = array(5,0,15,20,22,14,13,15,12,22,40,25);
Hi , i want to traverse the data points above and find the turning points based on a range.
The way i'm tackling it so far is simply taking the $array[$i] - $array[$i-1] , and if the absolute difference is greater than the range - i'm taking it as a turning point . however - the logic is flawed as if it moved slightly up and then back down - it breaks the cycle.
The 3 down values should have been enough to make X , a turning point downwards , but because they individually do not meet the range - they are discarded .
Any solutions ?
if($diff >= 0)
{
$diff_up = $diff_up + $diff;
}
else
{
$diff_down = $diff_down + abs($diff);
}
if((($diff_up-$diff_down) >=$range) && ($pivot_type != "UP"))
{
echo "Pivot UP at : ".$current;
break;
}
else if((($diff_down-$diff_up) >$range) && ($pivot_type != "DOWN"))
{
echo "Pivot DOWN at : ".$current;
break;
}
