Loop Through Letters in a String with PHP

Iterating through a string to get each letter can be easily achieved with PHP. The example below shows how this can be done with a for loop:

$string = "HelloWorld";

for ($i=0; $i<strlen($string); $i++) {
    echo $string[$i].".";
}

// Outputs: H.e.l.l.o.W.o.r.l.d.

Notice how we reference the individual letters like we would an array element. This also means we can get the letter at a certain point by referencing the letters index like so:

$string = "HelloWorld";

echo $string[4];

// Outputs: o
