I get from the database here is a string value:

'[0,11]'

  • why not get a normal value right away? - Alexey Shimansky

If directly breaking in, then:

 $str = '[0,11]'; $result = explode(',', trim($str, "]["));

trim - cuts the brackets, since The second parameter is a function that accepts a list of characters to be deleted.

explode - breaks the string on the comma delimiter into an array of numbers.

Another option:

 $str = '[0,11]'; $result = json_decode($str);

And it would be more correct, kmk, to immediately receive from the database the correct data set

  • I will add that it is better to store the arrays in the database to use the functions serialize unserialize. - Yaroslav Molchan
