I am trying to get the exchange of 1 Pound to other currencies, at the moment I am getting Eur 1 to other currencies. for example 1 Eur = 0.81400 GBP, I can reverse this and get 1 GBP to Eur by dividing with each giving me exchange rate of 1.228501228501229.
I want this for all the currencies, currently I am using php script to fetch the exchange rate. how can I alter my Stock_currency table and divide GBP to all the currencies and store them back in to Stock_currency table
here is my PHPscript
<?php
