[SOLVED] Best way of doing this.

[phpSensei]

Whats the best way of taking a sentence, breaking all the words into alphabets, and still keeping the spaces...

 

Example

 

My name is Sensei

 

Result

 

M|y| n|a|m|e i|s| S|e|n|s|e|i

Splits the words, now i need to split it into smaller pieces..

[kenrbnsn]

Here's one way, I don't know if it's the best...

<?php
$str = 'My name is Sensei';
$tmp = array();
for ($i=0;$i<strlen($str);$i++)
   $tmp[] = $str[$i];
echo str_replace(' |',' ',implode('|',$tmp));
?>

kenrbnsn already beat me to it, but I was taking a different approach and was having problem handling the spaces until I saw kenrbnsn elegant solution. here is a one line solution

 

<?php

$input = "My name is Sensei";

echo  str_replace(' |', ' ', implode('|', str_split($input)));

?>
