function Course::get_bool_substitution

7.x Course.php Course::get_bool_substitution($degree_id = 0)
6.x Course.php Course::get_bool_substitution($degree_id = 0)

Similar to the functions regarding display, these will say if this course has been used in a substitution for a particular degree.

1 call to Course::get_bool_substitution()
Course::to_data_string in classes/Course.php
This function will create a "data string" of the course. Think of it as a poor man's serialize. I can't actually use serialize, as I have to call this for every course on the screen, and the page load time was too long when using…
