program

Write a PHP program that declares a variable states with a value "Mississippi Alabama Texas Massachusetts Kansas". write a PHP program that does the following: 

1.  Search for a word in variable states that end in xas. Store this word in element 0 of a list named statesList.
2.  Search for a word in states that begins with k and ends in s. Perform a case insensitive comparison. [Note: Passing re. Ias a second parameter to method compile performs a case-insensitive comparison.] Store this word in element1 of statesList.
3. Search for a word in states that begins with M and ends in s. Store this word in element 2 of the list. d. Search for a word in states that ends in a. Store this word in element 3 of the list.

Basic Concepts

1. The explode() function breaks a string into an array.
2. preg_match – this function is used to perform a pattern match on a string.

code

<?php $states = "Mississippi Alabama Texas Massachusetts Kansas"; $statesArray = []; $states1 = explode(' ',$states); foreach($states1 as $state) { if(preg_match( '/xas$/', ($state))) $statesArray[0] = ($state); } foreach($states1 as $state) { if(preg_match( '/Kansas$/', ($state))) $statesArray[1] = ($state); } foreach($states1 as $state) { if(preg_match( '/Massachusetts$/', ($state))) $statesArray[2] = ($state); } foreach($states1 as $state) { if(preg_match( '/Alabama$/', ($state))) $statesArray[3] = ($state); } echo "search from : ".$states."<br>"; foreach ( $statesArray as $element => $value ){ print( $value." is the element ". $element."<br/>"); } ?>

output

search from string
