How to validate the given string using ctype function?
Normally I used to use preg function to validate the string. Some days ago I rad in php manual that the preg function is slower than other validating function, but still has its own pons and cons. Today I came across a new function called ctype which ca be used to validate the arguments or string. The ctype_alnum is used to calculate the alpha numeric characters and ctype_digit is used to validate the numiric values. Hope the below example will giva you an idea about the ctype function.
$word="w3calculator";
if(ctype_alnum($word))
echo "has alpha numeric characters";
else
echo "has no alphanumerica characters";
