How do I remove the last comma from a string using PHP?
To remove the last comma from a string in PHP, you can use the rtrim
function.
Here is an example of how you can use rtrim
to remove the last comma from a string:
<?php
$string = "apples, bananas, oranges, pears, ";
$string = rtrim($string, ", ");
echo $string; // Outputs "apples, bananas, oranges, pears"
The rtrim
function removes any specified characters from the end of a string. In this case, we are specifying a comma and a space as the characters to be removed.
Note that this will only work if the comma is at the very end of the string, and is followed by a space. If the string is formatted differently, you may need to use a different approach.
