How to get the last 7 characters of a string in PHP
To get the last 7 characters of a string in PHP, we can use the built-in substr()
function by passing the first argument as a string and second argument -7
.So, it returns the last seven characters of a string.
Note: -7
is the number of characters we need to extract from the end position of a string.
Here is an example
$string = "you are learningphp";
$lastseven = substr($string, -7);
echo $lastseven;
Output:
ningphp
The substr() function accepts three arguments, the first one is string
, the second is start position, third is length (which is optional).
Similarly, you can also get last n characters from a string by changing the second argument.
$string = "you are learningphp";
$lasttwo = substr($string, -2);
echo $lasttwo;
