separating letters in a string

I was wondering if there was a function that lets you separate the letters in a single word string , either to an array or another string with separators.

Thanks

Does this help?

Code: Select all

<?php
$string = 'Hello, world!';
echo $string{0};
?>

well what i was looking for was a function that would break a string into an array of letters so :

Code: Select all

<?php

$var = "hello";
$letters = array ( 'h', 'e', 'l', 'l', 'o');       

?>
however that helps alot
