Re: Explode a variable into each character

If $string is a string, like : $string = '312'; Then one can do : $string[0]; // 3 $string[1]; // 1 $string[2]; // 2 Note, '312' is a string and will work using above but if we define 312 as an integer like : $string = 312; Then $string[0] will not "work" and it'll need to be juggled as a string first, see : http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.types.type-juggling.php Also, if you want to create an array and not do the above then check out the following, an example exists to do this : http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.preg-split.php Regards Philip Olson http://www.cornado.com/ On Fri, 23 Feb 2001, Brandon Orther wrote: > Hello, > > I have a string of 1034 and I want to have an array that has each number in > an element.(ex: num[0] = 1, num[1] = 0, num[2] = 3 num[3] = 4) Is there a > way to explode a string by each character? > > Thank you, > > -------------------------------------------- > Brandon Orther > WebIntellects Design/Development Manager > brandon@webintellects.com > 800-994-6364 > www.webintellects.com > -------------------------------------------- > > > -- > PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) > To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net > For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net > To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net >
