PHP Exercises: Insert a given string into middle of the another given string of length 4

PHP Basic Algorithm: Exercise-60 with Solution

Write a PHP program to insert a given string into middle of the another given string of length 4.

Sample Solution:

PHP Code :

<?php
// Define a function named 'test' that inserts a word into a string at a specific position
function test($s1, $word)
{
    // Use substr to concatenate the first two characters of s1, followed by the 'word', and then the rest of s1
    return substr($s1, 0, 2) . $word . substr($s1, 2);
}

// Test the 'test' function with different input strings and display the results
echo test("[[]]", "Hello")."\n";
echo test("(())", "Hi");
?>

Explanation:

• Function Purpose:
• The test function takes two parameters, $s1 (a string) and $word (a string to insert), and inserts $word into $s1 at the third position (after the first two characters).
• Insertion Logic:
• The function uses substr to split $s1 into two parts:
• The first two characters of $s1 (substr($s1, 0, 2)).
• The rest of $s1 from the third character onward (substr($s1, 2)).
• It then concatenates the parts: the first two characters of $s1, followed by $word, followed by the rest of $s1.

Output:

[[Hello]]
((Hi))
