ordConvert the first byte of a string to a value between 0 and 255 Description
int ord(string
$character )
Interprets the binary value of the first byte of
If the string is in a single-byte encoding, such as ASCII, ISO-8859, or Windows 1252, this is equivalent to returning the position of a character in the character set's mapping table. However, note that this function is not aware of any string encoding, and in particular will never identify a Unicode code point in a multi-byte encoding such as UTF-8 or UTF-16. This function complements chr. Parameters
Return ValuesAn integer between 0 and 255. Examples
Example #1 ord example
Example #2 Examining the individual bytes of a UTF-8 string
The above example will output: Byte 0 of $str has value 240 Byte 1 of $str has value 159 Byte 2 of $str has value 144 Byte 3 of $str has value 152 |
