How to split a special string...

[Reply-Via-Newsgroup]

Folks,

I have the following string:

1P,2G,3G,3ML,4L,5LB,4P

Anybody know how I can easily seperate the letters and numbers in to
multi-dimension array so as I have something like

$myarray[0][0]="1";
$myarray[0][1]="P";

$myarray[1][0]="2";
$myarray[1][1]="G";

$myarray[2][0]="3";
$myarray[2][1]="G";

$myarray[3][0]="3";
$myarray[3][1]="ML";

$myarray[4][0]="4";
$myarray[4][1]="L";

$myarray[5][0]="5";
$myarray[5][1]="LB";

$myarray[6][0]="4";
$myarray[6][1]="P";
All help via newsgroup would be much appreciated...

Thanks,
Randell D.

[Untested...]

$string = '1P,2G,3G,3ML,4L,5LB,4P';
$init_array = explode(',', $string);

$i = 0;
foreach ($init_array as $init_element) {
preg_match(
'#^([0-9]+)([a-zA-Z]+)$#',
$init_element,
$final_array[$i]
);
$i++
}
$final_array should be a as requested if I'm thinking straight =)

Try this code:
[SNIP]

function str_sep(&$val,$key)
{
$val = preg_split('/(?<=\d)(?=\w)/', $val);
}

$str = "1P,2G,3G,3ML,4L,5LB,4P";
$myArray = explode(',',$str);
array_walk($myArray,'str_sep');
print_r($myArray);
[/SNIP]

I guess it will do the required job.
