สำหรับคำสั่ง select ของ mysql นั้น query ของ mysqli จะ return เป็น mysqli_result
mysqli_result::$current_field — Get current field offset of a result pointer
mysqli_result::data_seek — Adjusts the result pointer to an arbitrary row in the result
mysqli_result::fetch_all — Fetches all result rows as an associative array(MYSQLI_ASSOC หรือ 1), a numeric array(MYSQLI_NUM หรือ 2), or both(MYSQLI_BOTH หรือ 3)
mysqli_result::fetch_array — Fetch a result row as an associative, a numeric array, or both
mysqli_result::fetch_assoc — Fetch a result row as an associative array
mysqli_result::fetch_field_direct — Fetch meta-data for a single field
mysqli_result::fetch_field — Returns the next field in the result set
mysqli_result::fetch_fields — Returns an array of objects representing the fields in a result set
mysqli_result::fetch_object — Returns the current row of a result set as an object
mysqli_result::fetch_row — Get a result row as an enumerated array
mysqli_result::$field_count — Get the number of fields in a result
mysqli_result::field_seek — Set result pointer to a specified field offset
mysqli_result::free — Frees the memory associated with a result
mysqli_result::$lengths — Returns the lengths of the columns of the current row in the result set
mysqli_result::$num_rows — Gets the number of rows in a result

fetch_array
       fetch_array
    ([ 
int $resulttype = MYSQLI_BOTH

- MYSQLI_ASSOC ออกมาเป็น associative array
 
- MYSQLI_NUM ออกมาเป็น numeric array
 
- MYSQLI_BOTH ออกมาทั้ง associative และ numeric แต่ต้องระวัง length จะเพิ่มมาอีกเท่านึงเพราะออกมาทั้ง 2 แบบ ให้ระวังเวลา ใช้ for แบบกำหนด i<length
