    Hi All,

    Im trying to split a number down e.g

    Number passed in: 1234567

    This would split down too:

    Number 1: 1
    Number 2: 2
    and so on..

    Whats the best way to do this?

    thanks,

    $array = str_split("0123456789bcdfghjkmnpqrstvwxyz");
    
    PHP:
    Will give you an array with each individual char as an element

    You can also access a variable as an array without performing any manipulation at all.

    
    $number = 1234567;
    
    /*
    $number[0] //1
    $number[1] //2
    $number[2] //3
    $number[3] //4
    */
    
    Code (markup):
