Remove All Lines Less Than 3 Words Longs

[young_coder]

Dear all,

I want to remove all lines less than 3 words longs so I can stuff the rest into a db.

Can somebody help me?

Thank you in advance

could you give an example? And i am almost sure you need preg_replace for this

Hmmm

explode each line using space as delim - if elements more than 3, keep. if elements 3 or less discard

$text =<<<TEXT
line containing more than three words
less than
three words
on the previous two lines
TEXT;

$split = explode("\n", $text);
foreach($split as $key => $line) {
    if(str_word_count($line, 0) < 3) {
        unset($split[$key]);
    }
}
echo implode("\n", $split);

 

str_word_count
