How to get certain part of a string value in php?

Question

I get one value like "13and45" and would like to know if there is a way so I can store these values separately like

$string="13and45";    

$value1=13;    

$value2=45;

Do you guys know how I can manipulate the string in order to get something like what I have above?

Try `strpos()` maybe: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4366730/check-if-string-contains-specific-words ? — Maximus2012, Apr 01 '16 at 20:33

PHP - Explode () function

This will return an array with the two values.

Example:

$array = explode ("and", $string);

Returned array with strings:

$array[0] = 13
$array[1] = 45

You can use something like intval(substr($string, 0, 2) to get the first integer and intval(substr($string, 5, 2) for the second. intval will get the integer value from a string, and substr will get the portion of the string given by ($string, index, length).
