We have array with names:
[
'Robin Hood',
'Little John',
'Maid Marion',
'Friar Tuck',
'Will Scarlet'
]
First word inside each item should be moved to the end of this item.
We should get this:
[
'Hood Robin',
'John Little',
'Marion Maid',
'Tuck Friar',
'Scarlet Will'
]
If you only need to move the part before the first whitespace (setting $limit = 2
in explode()
to get two parts only):
function func($n) {
list($first, $rest) = explode(' ', $n, 2);
return $rest . ' ' . $first;
}
$trans = array_map('func', $names);
(Demo)
Gives:
Array
(
[0] => Hood Robin
[1] => John Little
[2] => Marion Maid
[3] => Tuck Friar
[4] => Scarlet Will
[5] => Fitzgerald Kennedy John
)
