PHP Array Exercises : Generate an array with a range taken from a string

PHP Array: Exercise-29 with Solution

Write a PHP program to generate an array with a range taken from a string.

Sample Solution:

PHP Code:

<?php
function string_range($str1) 
{
  preg_match_all("/([0-9]{1,2})-?([0-9]{0,2}) ?,?;?/", $str1, $a);
  $x = array ();
  foreach ($a[1] as $k => $v) 
  {
    $x  = array_merge ($x, range ($v, (empty($a[2][$k])?$v:$a[2][$k])));
  }
  return ($x);
}
$test_string = '1-2 18-20 9-11';
print_r(string_range($test_string));
?>

Sample Output:

Array                                                       
(                                                           
    [0] => 1                                                
    [1] => 2                                                
    [2] => 18                                               
    [3] => 19                                               
    [4] => 20                                               
    [5] => 9                                                
    [6] => 10                                               
    [7] => 11                                               
)

PHP: Tips of the Day

PHP: Where does PHP store the error log? (php5, apache, fastcgi, cpanel)

PHP stores error logs in /var/log/apache2 if PHP is an apache2 module. Shared hosts are often storing log files in your root directory /log subfolder. But...if you have access to a php.ini file you can do this:

error_log = /var/log/php-scripts.log

According to rinogo's comment: If you're using cPanel, the master log file you're probably looking for is stored (by default) at

/usr/local/apache/logs/error_log

If all else fails you can check the location of the log file using

<?php phpinfo(); ?>
