Split 4 digit numbers

I want to split a 4 digit number with 4 digit decimal .
Inputs:

Input 1 : 5546.263 
Input 2 : 03739.712  /*(some time may have one zero at first)*/

Result: (array) 

Result of input 1 :  0 => 55 , 1 => 46.263
Result of input 2 :  0 => 37 , 1 => 39.712

P.S : Inputs is GPS data and always have 4 digit as number / 3 digit as decimal and some time have zero at first .

Solution

  • You could use the following function:

    function splitNum($num) {
    $num = ltrim($num, '0');
    $part1 = substr($num, 0, 2);
    $part2 = substr($num, 2);
    return array($part1, $part2);
}

    Test case 1:

    print_r( splitNum('5546.263') );

    Output:

    Array
(
    [0] => 55
    [1] => 46.263
)

    Test case 2:

    print_r( splitNum('03739.712') );

    Output:

    Array
(
    [0] => 37
    [1] => 39.712
)
