   Returns the number of rows affected by <literal>INSERT</literal>,

  <para>
   This function only works with queries which update a table. In order to
   get the number of rows from a SELECT query, use 
   <function>mysqli_stmt_num_rows</function> instead.

  <para>
   An integer greater than zero indicates the number of rows affected or
   retrieved.
   Zero indicates that no records where updated for an UPDATE/DELETE
   statement, no rows matched the WHERE clause in the query or that no query
   has yet been executed. -1 indicates that the query has returned an error.
  </para>
  <note>
   <para>
    If the number of affected rows is greater than maximal PHP int value, the
    number of affected rows will be returned as a string value.
