oci_num_rows — Returns number of rows affected during statement execution

### Description

int oci_num_rows ( resource `$statement` )

Gets the number of rows affected during statement execution.

### Parameters

`statement`

  A valid OCI statement identifier.

### Return Values

Returns the number of rows affected as an integer, or `FALSE` on errors.

### Examples

Example #1 oci_num_rows() example

`<?php
$conn = oci_connect("scott", "tiger");
$stmt = oci_parse($conn, "create table emp2 as select * from emp");
oci_execute($stmt);
echo oci_num_rows($stmt) . " rows inserted.<br />";
oci_free_statement($stmt);
$stmt = oci_parse($conn, "delete from emp2");
oci_execute($stmt, OCI_DEFAULT);
echo oci_num_rows($stmt) . " rows deleted.<br />";
oci_commit($conn);
oci_free_statement($stmt);
$stmt = oci_parse($conn, "drop table emp2");
oci_execute($stmt);
oci_free_statement($stmt);
oci_close($conn);
?>`

### Notes

> Note: This function does not return number of rows selected! For SELECT statements this function will return the number of rows, that were fetched to the buffer with oci_fetch*() functions.

> Note: In PHP versions before 5.0.0 you must use ocirowcount() instead. This name still can be used, it was left as alias of oci_num_rows() for downwards compatability. This, however, is deprecated and not recommended.
