Re: I have a code in php that needs to be upgraded the situation

You can access single characters within a string by using square brackets like the string is an array.

Using this method you could use code like this:

PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
$inputString = $_POST['phrase'];
for($i = 0; $i < strlen($inputString); $i++)
{
$stringChar = $inputString[$i];
switch($stringChar)
{
//your switch statement code here
}
}
$inputString = $_POST['phrase'];
for($i = 0; $i < strlen($inputString); $i++)
{
$stringChar = $inputString[$i];
switch($stringChar)
{
//your switch statement code here
}
}

You may find using regex in the switch area may be more efficient than multiple case statements.

vowels = [AEIOUaeiou], etc.
