mb_str_split

(PHP 7 >= 7.4.0, PHP 8)

mb_str_splitGiven a multibyte string, return an array of its characters

Descrizione

mb_str_split(string $string, int $length = 1, ?string $encoding = null): array

This function will return an array of strings, it is a version of str_split() with support for encodings of variable character size as well as fixed-size encodings of 1,2 or 4 byte characters. If the length parameter is specified, the string is broken down into chunks of the specified length in characters (not bytes). The encoding parameter can be optionally specified and it is good practice to do so.

Elenco dei parametri

string

The string to split into characters or chunks.

length

If specified, each element of the returned array will be composed of multiple characters instead of a single character.

encoding

Il parametro encoding è la codifica dei caratteri. Se è omesso, verrà utilizzata la codifica interna.

A string specifying one of the supported encodings.

Valori restituiti

mb_str_split() returns an array of strings.
