Re: Looping from A to Z

Good afternoon. I'm having trouble getting PHP to loop from A through Z. Here is what I tried, coming from a C background: for ($l = "A"; $l <= "Z"; $l++)

     echo $l;

// Returns A, B, C, ..., X, Y, Z, AA, AB, AC, AD, AE, ... YX, YY, YZ. (26 * 26 results!) Interestingly, if I make it a "less than" operation instead of "less than or equal to", it works correctly (except for the Z): for ($l = "A"; $l < "Z"; $l++)

     echo $l;

// Returns A, B, C, ..., W, X, Y (25 results) Anyone know why PHP would do that? Richard --- Richard K. Miller www.richardkmiller.com

foreach(range('a', 'z') as $value){ echo $value; }
