str_split

(PHP 5, PHP 7)

str_split将字符串转换为数组

说明

str_split ( string $string [, int $split_length = 1 ] ) : array

将一个字符串转换为数组。

参数

string

输入字符串。

split_length

每一段的长度。

返回值

如果指定了可选的 split_length 参数,返回数组中的每个元素均为一个长度为 split_length 的字符块,否则每个字符块为单个字符。

如果 split_length 小于 1,返回 FALSE。如果 split_length 参数超过了 string 超过了字符串 string 的长度,整个字符串将作为数组仅有的一个元素返回。

范例

Example #1 str_split() 使用范例

<?php

$str 
"Hello Friend";

$arr1 str_split($str);
$arr2 str_split($str3);

print_r($arr1);
print_r($arr2);

?>

以上例程会输出:

Array
(
    [0] => H
    [1] => e
    [2] => l
    [3] => l
    [4] => o
    [5] =>
    [6] => F
    [7] => r
    [8] => i
    [9] => e
    [10] => n
    [11] => d
)

Array
(
    [0] => Hel
    [1] => lo
    [2] => Fri
    [3] => end
)

注释

Note:

在处理多字节字符时,str_split() 会按字节数转换,而非字符数。

Unicode str_split without use of mbstring. Based on PCRE_UTF8 feature.

function mb_str_split($str, $len){
    $chars = preg_split('/(?<!^)(?!$)/u', $str );
    $out = array();
    foreach( array_chunk($chars, $len) as $a ){
        $out[] = join("", $a);
    }
    return $out;
}

Here is a better version of queremy@gmail.com's solution. It has the exact same interface as str_split, but works with any UTF-8 string.

<?php
if (!function_exists('mb_str_split')) {
   
/**
     * Converts an UTF-8 string to an array.
     *
     * E.g. mb_str_split("Hello Friend");
     * returns ['H', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o', ' ', 'w', 'o', 'r', 'l', 'd']
     *
     * @param string $string The input string.
     * @param int $split_length Maximum length of the chunk. If specified, the returned array will be broken down
     *        into chunks with each being split_length in length, otherwise each chunk will be one character in length.
     * @return array|boolean
     *         -
     *         - If the split_length length exceeds the length of string, the entire string is returned
     *           as the first (and only) array element.
     *         - False is returned if split_length is less than 1.
     */
   
function mb_str_split($string, $split_length = 1)
    {
        if (
$split_length == 1) {
            return
preg_split("//u", $string, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
        } elseif (
$split_length > 1) {
           
$return_value = [];
           
$string_length = mb_strlen($string, "UTF-8");
            for (
$i = 0; $i < $string_length; $i += $split_length) {
               
$return_value[] = mb_substr($string, $i, $split_length, "UTF-8");
            }
            return
$return_value;
        } else {
            return
false;
        }
    }
}
?>

It's mentioned in the Return Values section above ("If the split_length length exceeds the length of string, the entire string is returned as the first (and only) array element"), but note that an input of empty string will return array(1) { [0]=> string(0) "" }. Interestingly an input of NULL will also return array(1) { [0]=> string(0) "" }.

Compare this with, say, <?php  preg_split('//', $inputString, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY); ?> which will return array(0) { } for an input of empty string or NULL. I find this to be a bit more intuitive.

Hope this helps.

Note that in atleast in PHP 5.5.9 (Zend Engine v2.5.0), str_split with an integer value as an argument may return unpredictable results.

If your number contains leading 0's, the result array is unprdictable as it may contain any number of digits from the argument or (mostly) just a 0.

Here are a list of possible values that might be returned:
-Interger

<?php
print_r
(str_split(0080450));  // does not work
print_r(str_split(strval(0080450)));  // neither this

/*
* Outputs:
* Array
* (
*     [0] => 0
* )
*/
?>

BUT
<?php
print_r
(str_split(80450));  // works fine
print_r(str_split(strval(80450)));  // so does this

/*
* Outputs:
* (
*     [0] => 8
*     [1] => 0
*     [2] => 4
*     [3] => 5
*     [4] => 0
* )
*/
?>

Floating point numbers have their leading and trailing 0s cut off:
<?php
print_r
(str_split(0080450.0010));   // works but.. print_r(str_split(strval(0080450.0010)));  // same here..

/*
Outputs:
* Array
* (
*     [0] => 8
*     [1] => 0
*     [2] => 4
*     [3] => 5
*     [4] => 0
*     [5] => .
*     [6] => 0
*     [7] => 0
*     [8] => 1
* )
*/
?>

I'm not sure if this can be considered a bug, since this is due to how type conversion and casting works, so i just posted it here.
I've notced that this is how strval() works. Can anyone shed light into this?..

To split UTF-8 into 16-charcater slices you can use:
<?php
preg_split
('/(?=(.{16})*$)/u', $text);
?>
You can also use look-behind instead of look-ahead if you want the first (not the last) chunk to be the shortest.
stlawson AT JoyfulEarthTech DOT com 28-Apr-2013 06:48
The documentation fails to mention what happens when the string length does not divide evenly with the chunk size.  Not sure if the same behavior for all versions of PHP so I offer the following code to determine this for your installation.  On mine [version 5.2.17], the last chunk is an array the length of the remaining chars.

<?php

$da_string
= "When number of chars does't divide evenly";
$len = strlen($da_string);
$chunk_size = 8;
echo
"<p> Length of <span style='font-family:monospace'>$da_string</span>: $len</p>\n";
echo
"<p> Chunck size: $chunk_size</p>\n";
$parts = str_split($da_string, $chunk_size);
$html = "<table border='5' cellpadding='3' cellspacing='4'>\n";
foreach (
$parts as $idx=>$part)
{
  
$html .= "<tr>\n";
  
$html .= "<td style='font-family:monospace'>$part</td>";
  
$chars = str_split($part);
   foreach (
$chars as $char)
   {
       if (
$char === ' ')
       {
          
$html .= "<td>&nbsp;</td>";
       }
       else
       {
          
$html .= "<td>$char</td>";
       }
   }
  
$html .= "</tr>\n";
}
$html .= "</table>\n";
echo
$html;
?>

A little one-liner that came in handy. I thought i'd share for those who want to split a string into two parts by the given offset.

<?php

   
/**
    * Split a string into two parts at offset.
    *
    * @param    string    $string
    * @param    integer    $offset
    * @return    mixed    array and bool(false) if offset is out of scope
    */

function str_osplit($string, $offset){
    return isset(
$string[$offset]) ? array(substr($string, 0, $offset), substr($string, $offset)) : false;
    }

$str = "Split a string into two parts at offset";
var_dump(str_osplit($str, 12));

/**
* Output:
array(2) {
  [0]=>
  string(12) "Split a stri"
  [1]=>
  string(27) "ng into two parts at offset"
}
*/

?>

A proper unicode string split;

<?php

$ret = array();
       
$len = mb_strlen($str, "UTF-8");
        for (

$ret[] = mb_substr($str, $i, $l, "UTF-8");
        }
        return
$ret;
    }
    return
preg_split("//u", $str, -1, PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
}
?>

$s = "Il?k süt"; // Mild milk

print_r(str_split($s, 3));
print_r(str_split_unicode($s, 3));

I needed a function that could split a string from the end with any left over chunk being at the beginning of the array (the beginning of the string).

<?php
function str_rsplit($str, $sz)
{
   
// splits a string "starting" at the end, so any left over (small chunk) is at the beginning of the array.   
   
if ( !$sz ) { return false; }
    if (
$sz > 0 ) { return str_split($str,$sz); }    // normal split
   
   
$l = strlen($str);
   
$sz = min(-$sz,$l);
   
$mod = $l % $sz;
   
    if ( !
$mod ) { return str_split($str,$sz); }    // even/max-length split

    // split
   
return array_merge(array(substr($str,0,$mod)), str_split(substr($str,$mod),$sz));
}

$str = 'aAbBcCdDeEfFg';
str_split($str,5); // return: {'aAbBc','CdDeE','fFg'}
str_rsplit($str,5); // return: {'aAbBc','CdDeE','fFg'}
str_rsplit($str,-5); // return: {'aAb','BcCdD','eEfFg'}

?>

here an equivalent function for unicode string :

<?php
function uni_strsplit($string, $split_length=1)
{
   
preg_match_all('`.`u', $string, $arr);
   
$arr = array_chunk($arr[0], $split_length);
   
$arr = array_map('implode', $arr);
    return
$arr;
}

The manual don't says what is returned when you parse a different type of variable.

This is the example:

<?php

$str1
= "Long"; // More than 1 char
$str2 = "x"; // Only 1 char
$str3 = ""; // Empty String
$str4 = 34; // Integer
$str5 = 3.4; // Float
$str6 = true; // Bool
$str7 = null; // Null

$spl1 = str_split($str1);
$spl2 = str_split($str2);
$spl3 = str_split($str3);
$spl4 = str_split($str4);
$spl5 = str_split($str5);
$spl6 = str_split($str6);
$spl7 = str_split($str7);

echo
count($spl1); // 4
echo count($spl2); // 1
echo count($spl3); // 1
echo count($spl4); // 2
echo count($spl5); // 3
echo count($spl6); // 1
echo count($spl7); // 1

print_r($spl1);
print_r($spl2);
print_r($spl3);
print_r($spl4);
print_r($spl5);
print_r($spl6);
print_r($spl7);

/*

For those it may concern:

We encountered trubble when trying to str_split a UTF-8 encoded string, containing such Swedish letters as ?, ? and ?.

It seems that this function splits according to byte-length and not character length. So if the letter "?" takes 2 bytes, then str_split() will only return the first bite of the character "?".

We ain't 100% sure that this is the case but this was anyhow the result we got. So we used the multi-byte functions instead.
thax 23-Nov-2008 06:44
Regarding ricordatis comment on preg_match_all('/./u',...) instead of preg_split('//u',...):
You'll have to use the pattern '/./us' with preg_match_all to get exactly the same behaviour w.r.t. newlines. Don't know if this is still faster, though. Oh, and the expected result is in $array[0].

To split unicode text, preg_match_all('/./u', $text, $array); seems faster for large strings than the use of preg_split('//u', $text); suggested by "edgaras dot janusauskas at gmail dot com" below.
vec [ at t] g dot com 21-Jun-2008 08:38
the fastast way (that fits my needs) to replace str_split() in php 4 i found is this:

<?php
if(!function_exists('str_split')) {
  function
str_split($string, $split_length = 1) {
   
$array = explode("\r\n", chunk_split($string, $split_length));
   
array_pop($array);
    return
$array;
  }
}
?>

i also tested the provided functions in the comments..

(the differences are 0.001 to 0.00001 sec)

A good use of str_split is reverse translating an amino acid sequence.

<?php
/* reverse translate an aa sequence using its dna counterpart */
function reverseTranslate($aaSeq,$ntSeq){
 
$nt=str_split($ntSeq,3);
 
$aa=str_split($aaSeq,1);
 
$gapChar=array('*','-');

 
$numAa=count($aa);
 
$ntIndex=0;
 
$newNtSeq="";
  for(
$i=0;$i<$numAa;$i++){
   
// if the aa is a gap, then just put on a gap character
   
if(in_array($aa[$i],$gapChar)){
     
$newNtSeq.='---';
    }
    else{
     
$newNtSeq.=$nt[$ntIndex];
     
$ntIndex++;
    }
  }
  return
$newNtSeq;
}
?>

Response to "Richard Ayotte 18-Jan-2008 09:27":

Slight tweak to prevent the need to call another preg_replace, there were also some bugs in this that I'm surprised didn't get noticed (causing duplicate replaces between the preg_replace calls) :)

Please feel free to optimize further. I'm not the best with lookahead/behinds yet. I also removed the :upper/lower: and it seemed to speed things up too.

<?php
$test
= 'CustomerIDWithSomeOtherJETWords';

preg_replace('/(?!^)[A-Z]{2,}(?=[A-Z][a-z])|[A-Z][a-z]/', ' $0', $test));
?>

Shaves off a little time anyway. :)

Version of str_split by rlpvandenberg at hotmail dot com is god-damn inefficient and when $i+$j > strlen($text) [last part of string] throws a lot of notice errors. This should work better:

    if(! function_exists('str_split'))
    {
        function str_split($text, $split = 1)
        {
            $array = array();
           
            for ($i = 0; $i < strlen($text);)
            {
                $array[] = substr($text, $i, $split);
                $i += $split;
            }
           
            return $array;
        }
    }
rlpvandenberg at hotmail dot com 19-Dec-2007 11:22
The previous suggestion is almost correct (and will only working for strlen=1. The working PHP4 function is:

<code>
function str_split($text, $split = 1){
    //place each character of the string into and array
    $array = array();
    for ($i=0; $i < strlen($text); $i++){
        $key = "";
        for ($j = 0; $j < $split; $j++){
            $key .= $text[$i+$j]; 
        }
        $i = $i + $j - 1;
        array_push($array, $key);
    }
    return $array;
}
</code>

this function can perform a reverse str_split. I write it for PHP4 but you can rename It for other versions..

if ( !function_exists('str_split') ) {
function str_split($string,$split_length=1){
    $sign = (($split_length<0)?-1:1);
    $strlen = strlen($string);
    $split_length = abs($split_length);
    if ( ($split_length==0) || ($strlen==0) ){
            $result = false;
            //$result[] = "";
    }
    elseif ($split_length >= $strlen){
        $result[] = $string;
    }
    else {
        $length = $split_length;
        for ($i=0; $i<$strlen; $i++){
            $i=(($sign<0)?$i+$length:$i);
            $result[] = substr($string,$sign*$i,$length);
            $i--;
            $i=(($sign<0)?$i:$i+$length);
            if ( ($i+$split_length) > ($strlen) ){
                $length = $strlen-($i+1);
            }
            else {
                $length = $split_length;
            }
        }
    }
    return $result;
}

$j = 0; $j < $split; $j++){
           
$key .= $text[$i]; 
        }
       
array_push($array, $key);
    }
    return
$array;
}
?>

Both mine and worksRazor's work well, I just prefer to use less code. I could have written one myself, but I was just being lazy.

A good way to use this method to convert CamelCase text into nice text would be-

<?php
       
/**
         Returns a formatted string based on camel case.
         e.g. "CamelCase" -> "Camel Case".
        */
       
function FormatCamelCase( $string ) {
               
$output = "";
                foreach(
str_split( $string ) as $char ) {
                       
strtoupper( $char ) == $char and $output and $output .= " ";
                       
$output .= $char;
                }
                return
$output;
        }
?>

Here is what I use. I started with examples here but modified to my own version:

<?php
if (phpversion () < "5"){ // define PHP5 functions if server uses PHP4

function str_split($text, $split = 1)
{
if (!
is_string($text)) return false;
if (!
is_numeric($split) && $split < 1) return false;
$len = strlen($text);
$array = array();
$s = 0;
$e=$split;
while (
$s <$len)
    {
       
$e=($e <$len)?$e:$len;
       
$array[] = substr($text, $s,$e);
       
$s = $s+$e;
    }
return
$array;
}
}
?>

how I can conwert
$string
 '1, 2, 5, 6, 10, 13, 23'
from ENUM at mySQL to

$array
[0] -> false
[1] -> true
[2] -> true
[3] -> false
[4] -> false
[5] -> true
[6] -> true
[7] -> false
[8] -> false
[9] -> false
[10] -> true
[11] -> false
[12] -> false
[13] -> true
[14] -> false
[15] -> false
...
[23] -> true

<?php
function enum_to_array($psEnum)
{
   
$aReturn = array();
   
$aTemp = explode(', ', $psEnum);
    for (
$i = $aTemp[0]; $i <= $aTemp[count($aTemp)-1]; $i++)
    {
       
$aReturn[$i] = in_array($i, $aTemp);
    }
}
?>

heres my version for php4 and below

<?php

function str_split_php4($text, $split = 1)
{
    if (!
is_string($text)) return false;
    if (!
is_numeric($split) && $split < 1) return false;
   
   
$len = strlen($text);
   
   
$array = array();
   
   
$i = 0;
   
    while (
$i < $len)
    {
       
$key = NULL;
       
        for (
$j = 0; $j < $split; $j += 1)
        {
           
$key .= $text{$i};
           
           
$i += 1;   
        }
       
       
$array[] = $key;
    }
   
    return
$array;
}

?>

I noticed in the post below me that his function would return an array with an empty key at the end.

So here is just a little fix for it.

<?php

//Create a string split function for pre PHP5 versions
function str_split($str, $nr) {  
            
    
//Return an array with 1 less item then the one we have
    
return array_slice(split("-l-", chunk_split($str, $nr, '-l-')), 0, -1);
     
}

?>

If you use PHP 4 and don't need the split_length parameter, here's the shortest replacement:

<?php

preg_split
('#(?<=.)(?=.)#s', $str);

?>

<?
//fast & short version od str_split

function string_split($str)
      {
        $str_array=array();
        $len=strlen($str);
        for($i=0;$i<$len;$i++) $str_array[]=$str{$i};
        return $str_array;
       }
//example :
var_dump (string_split("split this"));

found this great example on a php board for those not using php5, as an alternative to the posts below this

<?php
if(!function_exists('str_split')){
    function
str_split($string,$split_length=1){
       
$count = strlen($string); 
        if(
$split_length < 1){
            return
false
        } elseif(
$split_length > $count){
            return array(
$string);
        } else {
           
$num = (int)ceil($count/$split_length); 
           
$ret = array(); 
            for(
$i=0;$i<$num;$i++){ 
               
$ret[] = substr($string,$i*$split_length,$split_length); 
            } 
            return
$ret;
        }     
    } 
}
?>

I think that the last post by carlosreche at yahoo dot com is too complicated.
It's much easier if you do it like this:

<?php
if (!function_exists("str_split")) {
  function
str_split($str,$length = 1) {
    if (
$length < 1) return false;
   
$strlen = strlen($str);
   
$ret = array();
    for (
$i = 0; $i < $strlen; $i += $length) {
    
$ret[] = substr($str,$i,$length);
    }
    return
$ret;
  }
}
?>

I hope it helps for those with PHP <5
carlosreche at yahoo dot com 15-Feb-2006 04:23
For those who work with PHP < 5:

<?php

if (!function_exists("str_split")) {
    function
str_split($string, $length = 1) {
        if (
$length <= 0) {
           
trigger_error(__FUNCTION__."(): The the length of each segment must be greater then zero:", E_USER_WARNING);
            return
false;
        }
       
$splitted  = array();
       
$str_length = strlen($string);
       
$i = 0;
        if (
$length == 1) {
            while (
$str_length--) {
               
$splitted[$i] = $string[$i++];
            }
        } else {
           
$j = $i;
            while (
$str_length > 0) {
               
$splitted[$j++] = substr($string, $i, $length);
               
$str_length -= $length;
               
$i += $length;
            }
        }
        return
$splitted;
    }
}

?>

The very handy str_split() was introduced in PHP 5, but a lot of us are still forced to use PHP 4 at our host servers. And I am sure a lot of beginners have looked or are looking for a function to accomplish what str_split() does.

Taking advantge of the fact that strings are 'arrays' I wrote this tiny but useful e-mail cloaker in PHP, which guarantees functionality even if JavaScript is disabled in the client's browser. Watch how I make up for the lack of str_split() in PHP 4.3.10.

<?php

// cloackEmail() accepts a string, the email address to be cloaked
function cloakEmail($email) {

// We create a new array called $arChars, which will contain the individula characters making up the email address. The array is blank for now.
   
$arChars = array();

// We extract each character from the email 'exploiting' the fact that strings behave like an array: watch the '$email[$i]' bit, and beging to fill up the blank array $arChars
   
for ($i = 0; $i < strlen($email); $i++) { $arChars[] = $email[$i]; }

// Now we work on the $arChars array: extract each character in the array and print out it's ASCII value prefixed with '&#' to convert it into an HTML entity
   
foreach ($arChars as $char) { print '&#'.ord($char); }

// The result is an email address in HTML entities which, I hope most email address harvesters can't read.

}
print
cloakEmail('someone@nokikon.com');
?>

###### THE CODE ABOVE WITHOUT COMMENTS ######

<?php
function cloakEmail($email) {
   
$arChars = array();
    for (
$i = 0; $i < strlen($email); $i++) { $arChars[] = $email[$i]; }
    foreach (
$arChars as $char) { print '&#'.ord($char); }
}
print
cloakEmail('someone@nokikon.com');
?>

In creating this little utility, I demonstrated how the lack of str_split() can be made up in PHP < 5. If you got how it was accomplished, you could write a function to do exactly what str_split() does in PHP 5 and even name it 'str_split()'. :)
