Good afternoon. I'm having trouble getting PHP to loop from A through
Z. Here is what I tried, coming from a C background:
for ($l = "A"; $l <= "Z"; $l++)
echo $l;
// Returns A, B, C, ..., X, Y, Z, AA, AB, AC, AD, AE, ... YX, YY, YZ.
(26 * 26 results!)
Interestingly, if I make it a "less than" operation instead of "less
than or equal to", it works correctly (except for the Z):
for ($l = "A"; $l < "Z"; $l++)
echo $l;
// Returns A, B, C, ..., W, X, Y (25 results)
Anyone know why PHP would do that?
