almightyegg Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 If I have a $variable how would select just the last character. So if it was thomas, it would select s ?? Any help is greatly appreciated Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/82771-solved-selecting-the-last-character-of-a-variable/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
corbin Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Hmmm a few ways to do this.... Here are the first two that come to mind.... Not sure which is faster, but it's probably the first. $word = 'thomas'; $s = $word[strlen($word)-1]; $word = 'thomas'; $l = strlen($word); $s = sub_str($word, $l-2, $l-1); Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/82771-solved-selecting-the-last-character-of-a-variable/#findComment-420970 Share on other sites More sharing options...

corbin Posted December 22, 2007 Share Posted December 22, 2007 Hrmmm just had a brain slip.... It's substr not sub_str, and I think this would work too: $word = 'thomas'; $s = sub_str($word, -1); Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/82771-solved-selecting-the-last-character-of-a-variable/#findComment-420973 Share on other sites More sharing options...
