Rather use rtrim(). Usage of chop() is not very clear nor consistent for people reading the code after you.
This function is an alias of: rtrim().
Note:
chop() is different than the Perl
chop()function, which removes the last character in the string.
Rather use rtrim(). Usage of chop() is not very clear nor consistent for people reading the code after you.If you are searching for a function that does the same trick as chop in PERL, then you should just do the following code:
<?php
$str = substr($str, 0, -1);
?>
The question is: why isn't chop() an alias of the code above, rather than something which will trap developpers?
