## Substring Function in PHP
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The Substring function in PHP returns a portion of the string, specified by two parameters, the start and the length.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Syntax
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
The substring function is used like any other function in php, and uses the subtr() syntax.
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
<?php
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
subtr( $string, $start, $length);
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
## Example
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
Below is an example of how you could use the substring function in a real world situation:
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
<?php
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
$apple = 'Apple';
|
||||||
|
$alphabet = 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz';
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
substr($apple, 0, 5); // Apple;
|
||||||
|
substr($apple, 0, 3); // App;
|
||||||
|
substr($apple, 3, 2); // le;
|
||||||
|
substr($alphabet, 0, 26); // abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz;
|
||||||
|
substr($alphabet, 12, 6); // mnopqr;
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
```
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
