How do I turn an array into a string?

[davidtymon]

hi all,

Can you please tell me how do I turn an array into a string?

Thanks

PHP not like C/C++

String in PHP doesn't consist of array of char like C

Using implode().

This is the example :

<?php

$array = array('lastname', 'email', 'phone');
$comma_separated = implode(",", $array);

echo $comma_separated; // lastname,email,phone

?>

Yeah, good idea.

Btw, what is the diffrence between explode and strtok?
Thanks

Quite a lot.

$str = "foo\nbar\tbaz\n\tquux";

explode("\n\t", $str); // array("foo\nbar\tbaz", 'quux');

strtok($str, "\n\t"); // 'foo'
strtok("\n\t"); // 'bar'
strtok("\n\t"); // 'baz'
strtok("\n\t"); // 'quux'
strtok("\n\t"); // false

[sysout]

nice...
thanks, I've learnt from you
