Object oriented style

`<?php
$mysqli = new mysqli("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");
/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}

$mysqli->autocommit(FALSE);
$mysqli->query("CREATE TABLE myCity LIKE City");
$mysqli->query("ALTER TABLE myCity Type=InnoDB");
$mysqli->query("INSERT INTO myCity SELECT * FROM City LIMIT 50");
/* commit insert */
$mysqli->commit();
/* delete all rows */
$mysqli->query("DELETE FROM myCity");
if ($result = $mysqli->query("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM myCity")) {
$row = $result->fetch_row();
printf("%d rows in table myCity.\n", $row[0]);
/* Free result */
$result->close();
}
/* Rollback */
$mysqli->rollback();
if ($result = $mysqli->query("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM myCity")) {
$row = $result->fetch_row();
printf("%d rows in table myCity (after rollback).\n", $row[0]);
/* Free result */
$result->close();
}
/* Drop table myCity */
$mysqli->query("DROP TABLE myCity");
$mysqli->close();
?>`

Procedural style

`<?php
$link = mysqli_connect("localhost", "my_user", "my_password", "world");
/* check connection */
if (mysqli_connect_errno()) {
printf("Connect failed: %s\n", mysqli_connect_error());
exit();
}
/* disable autocommit */
mysqli_autocommit($link, FALSE);
mysqli_query($link, "CREATE TABLE myCity LIKE City");
mysqli_query($link, "ALTER TABLE myCity Type=InnoDB");
mysqli_query($link, "INSERT INTO myCity SELECT * FROM City LIMIT 50");
/* commit insert */
mysqli_commit($link);
/* delete all rows */
mysqli_query($link, "DELETE FROM myCity");
if ($result = mysqli_query($link, "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM myCity")) {
$row = mysqli_fetch_row($result);
printf("%d rows in table myCity.\n", $row[0]);
/* Free result */
mysqli_free_result($result);
}
/* Rollback */
mysqli_rollback($link);
if ($result = mysqli_query($link, "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM myCity")) {
$row = mysqli_fetch_row($result);
printf("%d rows in table myCity (after rollback).\n", $row[0]);
/* Free result */
mysqli_free_result($result);
}
/* Drop table myCity */
mysqli_query($link, "DROP TABLE myCity");
mysqli_close($link);
?>`

The above examples will output:

    0 rows in table myCity.
    50 rows in table myCity (after rollback).
