Hex string looks like:
$hexString = "0307wordone0Banotherword0Dsomeotherword";
$wordsCount= hexdec(substr($hexString , 0, 2));
First byte ( 03
) is total number of words in string. Next byte is count for characters of the first word ( 07
). And after 7 bytes there is another integer 0B
which tells that next word length is 11 ( 0B
) characters, and so on...
What should function for exploding such string to array look like? We know how many iterations there should be from $wordsCount
. I've tried different approaches but nothing seems to work.
This can be parsed with a simple for
loop in O(n) . No need for some fancy (and slow) regex solutions.
$hexString = "0307wordone0Banotherword0Dsomeotherword";
$wordsCount = hexdec(substr($hexString, 0, 2));
$arr = [];
for ($i = 0, $pos = 2; $i < $wordsCount; $i++) {
$length = hexdec(substr($hexString, $pos, 2));
$arr[] = substr($hexString, $pos + 2, $length);
$pos += 2 + $length;
}
var_dump($arr);
you can solve this by iterating a pointer on the string with a for loop.
$hexString = "0307wordone0Banotherword0Dsomeotherword";
$wordsCount= hexdec(substr($hexString , 0, 2));
$pointer = 2;
for($i = 0; $i<$wordsCount;$i++)
{
$charCount =hexdec(substr($hexString , $pointer, 2 ));
$word = substr($hexString , $pointer + 2, $charCount);
$pointer = $pointer + $charCount + 2;
$words[] = $word;
}
print_r($words);
