For this, use preg_split() along with array_shift() and array_pop(). Let’s say the following is our string with letters and numbers
$values = "5j4o5h8n";
We want to display the numbers and letters in separate arrays.
Example
The PHP code is as follows
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <?php $values = "5j4o5h8n"; $singleValues = preg_split("/\d+/", $values); array_shift($singleValues); print_r($singleValues); $resultNumber= preg_split("/[a-z]+/", $values); array_pop($resultNumber); print_r($resultNumber); ?> </body> </html>
Output
This will produce the following output
Array ( [0] => j [1] => o [2] => h [3] => n ) Array ( [0] => 5 [1] => 4 [2] => 5 [3] => 8 )
