PHP Exercises : Using a character type variable print numbers
19. Arithmetic on Character Variables
Arithmetic operations on character variables : $d = 'A00'. Using this variable print the following numbers.
Sample Solution: -
PHP Code:
<?php
// Initialize variable $d with value 'A00'
$d = 'A00';
// Loop through 5 iterations
for ($n = 0; $n < 5; $n++) {
// Increment $d and echo the result
echo ++$d . "\n";
}
?>
Explanation:
- Initialize Variable:
- $d is initialized with the string value 'A00'.
- Loop through 5 Iterations:
- A for loop iterates 5 times, with $n starting at 0 and incrementing by 1 until it reaches 4.
- Increment and Display:
- In each iteration, ++$d increments $d in "alphanumeric" order.
- The echo statement outputs the incremented value of $d, followed by a newline (\n).
- Output Explanation:
- Each increment follows a pattern similar to an alphanumeric sequence. For example, starting with 'A00', it will output values like A01, A02, A03, A04, and A05.
Output:
A01 A02 A03 A04 A05

- Write a PHP script to increment an alphanumeric string and handle rollover when maximum numeric value is reached.
- Write a PHP script to perform addition on a string with embedded numbers while retaining its alphabetic prefix.
- Write a PHP script to develop a function that increments the numeric part of an alphanumeric string and formats the result.
- Write a PHP script to simulate arithmetic operations on a string by adding a fixed value and outputting a new formatted string.
