Parameters

$tablestringrequired
Table name.
$dataarrayrequired
Data to insert (in column => value pairs).
Both $data columns and $data values should be "raw" (neither should be SQL escaped).
Sending a null value will cause the column to be set to NULL – the corresponding format is ignored in this case.
$formatstring[]|stringoptional
An array of formats to be mapped to each of the value in $data.
If string, that format will be used for all of the values in $data.
A format is one of '%d', '%f', '%s' (integer, float, string).
If omitted, all values in $data will be treated as strings unless otherwise specified in wpdb::$field_types.

Default:null

Return

int|false The number of rows inserted, or false on error.
