$arr1 = array ("llo" "world", "ef", "gh" );
What’s the best way to check if $str1
ends with some string from $arr1
?
The answer true/false is great, although knowing the number of $arr1 element as an answer (if true) would be great.
Example:
$pos= check_end("world hello");//$pos=0; because ends with llo $pos= check_end("hello world");//$pos=1; because ends with world.
Is there any better/faster/special way than just comparing in for-statement all elements of $arr1
with the end of $str1
?

Off the top of my head…..
function check_end($str, $ends) { foreach ($ends as $try) { if (substr($str, -1*strlen($try))===$try) return $try; } return false; }
