Split string

[radofeya]

Can I split a string word by word into an array by using PHP?

example:

$string = "hello";
then, split string into "h", "e", "l", "l", "o".

thanks

There's a function just for that

$string = 'Hello there!';
$array = str_split($string);
print_r($array);

The above will output:

Array
(
    [0] => H
    [1] => e
    [2] => l
    [3] => l
    [4] => o
    [5] =>
    [6] => t
    [7] => h
    [8] => e
    [9] => r
    [10] => e
    [11] => !
)

So the function you need is str_split. You can also choose to split the string every 2 letters, 3 letters, or whatever you desire, but the default will split every letter into it's own array key.
View PHP.net for more info.

Similarly, you can just use explode() if you split by null:

// returns an array with each character:
explode("Hello there!", "");
