I'm not a troller. It was just interresting for me to defends my opinion because I don't forget when I start (alone wihout a teacher) to learn PHP. And before to 'close my mouth', 'No !' I'm not a lier I know Zend: http://forums.zend.c...hp?f=69&t=77938 http://forums.zend.c...p?f=69&t=104538 http://forums.zend.c...hp?f=69&t=72553

Yeah ! That's what I like ! @ignace I totally agree with that ! But, where is the modulo(%) ? It's a school exercice with this 3 following Tip 1: Do not panic - Tip 2: Mostly good solutions also get points - Tip 3: Use modulo (%) @haku Exactly ! Why ? Because I repeat 'Im not a regex expert', so this is the best that I can ! I know PHP, OOP, Design-Patterns and Zend but sure I need some regex lessons ! When you see a little regex like this preg_match('%[A-Z]%', $k) you think it's hard to understand ? @Chritian F I'm open on every critize ! I's good for me ! But you can not to stay behind your screen with a donuts and coffee and just provide a little critic ! Show to us the best that you can do ! If I'm doing something wrong you must to tell me as soon as is possible not when it's too late ! This is the best answer! @Psycho Now, for me, the best solution is not The Best Solution ! If you say "Hey Selena the best solution it's to use the PHP preg_math() function with a complex regex in a single line", you must to tell her "But I know you are a beginner and for the same result I provide you a second way but with some basics PHP functions because it's more easy for you to progress step by step".

I agree @shlumph Thanks @Christian F Post your code and after you can judge me ! @ignace (sorry for my English !) Regex is "magical", but a complex regex it's an advanced concept and it's totally inappropriate for a beginner programmer like Selena to start learning PHP with that sh*t. A beginner need to learn simple and basics concepts, and different kind of way how to manipulate PHP functions !!! function validateLicense($plate) { $p = explode('-', $plate); foreach($p as $k) { if(!preg_match('%^[A-Z0-9]+$%', $k)) { return false; } if(preg_match('%[A-Z]%', $k) && preg_match('%[0-9]%', $k)) { return false; } } return strlen($plate) == 8 ? true : false; }

function validateLicense($plate) { if(substr_count($plate, '-') !== 2) { return false; } if(strrpos($plate, '-') !== 2 && strrpos($plate, '-') !== 5) { return false; } $p = explode('-', $plate); foreach($p as $k) { if(!preg_match('%^[A-Z|0-9]+$%', $k)) { return false; } if(preg_match('%[A-Z]%', $k) && preg_match('%[0-9]%', $k)) { return false; } } return strlen($plate) == 8 ? true : false; } var_dump(validateLicense('AA-12-CD')); if you have something more better than I, please post it !

Selena 1992 say Seriously, you think it's possible for a newbie to write a complex regex ?! :-\ Like I say I'm not a 'regex expert', but sure for my part it's not too late to learn something new. My last code function validateLicense($plate) { $p = explode('-', $plate); foreach($p as $k) { if(preg_match('%[A-Za-z]%', $k) && preg_match('%[a-z0-9]%', $k)) { return false; } if(preg_match('%[A-Z0-9]%', $k)) { continue; } else { return false; } } return strlen($plate) == 8 ? true : false; }

Oops my previous code contains error. I come back !

For a fixed format XX-XX-XX function validateLicense($plate) { $p = explode('-', $plate); foreach($p as $k) { if(preg_match('%[A-Z]%', $k) && preg_match('%[a-z0-9]%', $k)) return false; } return strlen($plate) == 8 ? true : false; } var_dump(validateLicense('AE-12-CD'));

I'm not a 'regex expert', but this code do the job function validateLicense($license) { // A car license plate always consists of 8 characters $strlen = strlen($license); if($strlen !== { return 0; } $i = 0; while($i < $strlen) { // Each character is a letter, a digit or a '-' character if(preg_match('%[A-Z0-9-]%', $license[$i])) { if(isset($license[$i + 1])) { // A letter is always next to another letter or next to a '-' character if(preg_match('%[A-Z]%', $license[$i])) { if(!preg_match('%[A-Z-]%', $license[$i + 1])) { return 0; } } // A digit always stands next to another digit or next to a '-' character if(preg_match('%[0-9]%', $license[$i])) { if(!preg_match('%[0-9-]%', $license[$i + 1])) { return 0; } } } } else { return 0; } $i++; } return 1; }

Hi, Tip 3: Use modulo (%) is a trap ! Ha Ha !! I think you need something like that function validateLicense($license) { // A car license plate always consists of 8 characters if(strlen($license) !== { return false; } $l = str_split($license); // Each character is a letter, a digit or a '-' character foreach($l as $k => $v) { if(!preg_match('%[a-zA-Z0-9_-]%', $v)) { // You see the modulo (%) return false; } } return true; } var_dump(validateLicense('AB-12-CD')); You need to write this condition A digit always stands next to another digit or next to a '-' character. It's your homework ...

// correction $number = "20"; $n = str_split($number); echo $n[0]; echo $n[1];

Hello, $number = "20"; str_split($number); echo $number[0]; echo '<br />'; echo $number[1]; /* Result 2 0 */
