PHP String: Exercise-16 with Solution

Write a PHP script to get a hex dump of a string.

Sample string : '[email protected]'

Sample Solution:

PHP Code:

<?php
$str = '[email protected]';
// Define the string.

echo bin2hex($str)."\n";
// Convert the string to hexadecimal representation and output it.
?>

Output:

72617979406578616d706c652e636f6d

Explanation:

The above PHP code snippet converts the string '[email protected]' into its hexadecimal representation using the "bin2hex()" function. The "bin2hex() function converts binary data into hexadecimal format. Here, it treats each character in the string as a byte and converts it to its corresponding hexadecimal representation.
