How To Use Right And Left Function In PHP

Answer : PHP doesn’t have built-in function like Right and Left function in the MYSQL commands.

Use the following function to get right or left character in PHP String

function left($str, $length) {
     return substr($str, 0, $length);
}

function left($str, $length) {

return substr($str, 0, $length);

}

How to use :

left('Sigit Prasetya', 5)

1	left('Sigit Prasetya', 5)

The Result :

function right($str, $length) {
     return substr($str, -$length);
}

function right($str, $length) {

return substr($str, -$length);

}

How To Use :

left('Sigit Prasetya', 8)

1	left('Sigit Prasetya', 8)

The Result :

Using the PHP substr represents the right and left functions. But with the above code we can simplify usage.
