Hi everyone.
Is there a way to explode by every character in the variable?
Example:
$var = 8;
$test = explode(, $var);
output would be
$test[0] = 0;
$test[1] = 0;
$test[2] = 0;
$test[3] = 0;
$test[4] = 8;
Can I get an array like that?

well, you can access strings like arrays already. So instead of 
exploding you can already do something like
$var = 15 is a number;
$var[2] = 7;

echo $var;
// will output: 17 is a number
same way goes for accessing them
In PHP5, the square brackets have been replaced with the curly ones (the 
square brackets still works, but it's deprecated)

$string = 12345;
echo $string{2}; // 3

Use preg_split(): http://php.net/preg_split - example 2.

?php
$var = 8;
$test = preg_split('//', $var,-1,PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY);
print_r($test);
?

Or, a possible faster method, using str_split() (only available in
PHP5): http://php.net/str_split

?php
$var = 8;
$test = str_split($var); // requires PHP5
print_r($test);
?

Try this:

$array = explode( ' ', chunk_split( $sting, 1, ' ' ) );

Well, that would leave a blank entry end of the array:

array(6) {
  [0]=
  string(1) 0
  [1]=
  string(1) 0
  [2]=
  string(1) 0
  [3]=
  string(1) 0
  [4]=
  string(1) 8
  [5]=
  string(0) 
}


Besides, strings containing spaces could also produce unexpected
results (like foo bar baz):

array(14) {
  [0]=
  string(1) f
  [1]=
  string(1) o
  [2]=
  string(1) o
  [3]=
  string(0) 
  [4]=
  string(0) 
  [5]=
  string(1) b
  [6]=
  string(1) a
  [7]=
  string(1) r
  [8]=
  string(0) 
  [9]=
  string(0) 
  [10]=
  string(1) b
  [11]=
  string(1) a
  [12]=
  string(1) z
  [13]=
  string(0) 
}

I would still suggest str_split() if available, otherwise
preg_split().

 Hi
 The manual states:
 
 $pizza = piece1 piece2 piece3 piece4 piece5 piece6;
 $pieces = explode( , $pizza);
 
 So, if I want to be able to echo piece1 to the screen at a later
 stage, I would go:
 
 echo $pieces[0];
 
 or
 $first_piece = $pieces[0];
 echo $first_piece;
 
 Right?

Right!
