trimming a string in php - php

Question

i'm still quite new to programming, so please excuse me.
I need to do the following:
Right now i have a string being output with two value: one with characters and numbers, a comma and the second with just a boolean value.
9fjrie93, 1
I would like to trim the string so it just ourputs as the boolean value. e.g.
1
I then need to perform an equality check on the boolean value. If it's 1 do one thing, else do something else. Would a simple if statement suffuce?
Thanks very much

Answer 1

No need for explode if it's always the last character.
<?php
$val = '9fjrie93, 1';
if( substr( $val, -1 ) === '1' ) {
// do stuff.
}
else {
// do stuff. Just other stuff.
}

Answer 2

How about:
$vals = explode(", ", "9fjrie93, 1");
if ($vals[1]) ...

Answer 3

You can also use list to name the results returned:
$original_str = '9fjrie93, 1';
list($characters, $boolean) = explode(', ', $original_str);
echo $boolean;

Answer 4

Try this:
$str = '9fjrie93, 1';
$str = explode(', ', $str); //it returns array('9fjrie93', '1')
$str = end($str); //takes the last element of the array

Answer 5

$mystring = '9fjrie93, 1';
$findme = ',';
$pos = strpos($mystring, $findme);
$i= substr($mystring,$pos);

Answer 6

$string = "9fjrie93, 1";
$val = substr($string, (strrpos($string, ',')+1));
Don't use explode since it's slower

Answer 7

If the 1 is always at the end of the line, you can do:
$line = '9fjrie93, 1'
if ( $line[strlen([$line])-1] == '1' ) {
// do stuff
} else {
// do other stuff
}
Which should at least perform better than explode, str_replace and substr solutions.

Answer 8

$pos = strpos($source_str, ',');
substr($source_str, $x_pos + 1);
hope this will solve it.

Answer 9

$output = str_replace(',', '', strstr('9fjrie93, 1', ','));
if( $output == '1' ) {
....do something
} else {
...do something else
}
