如何从字符串变量创建一个php数组？ [重复]

How to create an array from a string variable? This is the script I tried but it didn't work:

$names = '"Darius","Fiora","Katarina","Zed","Ahri","Lee sin"';
$array = array($names);

</div>

I dont think explode is what he wants, as it can add " to the elements in the array.

If your string is pretty SURE formatted, eval function is an optional choice (more efficient):

$names = '"Darius","Fiora","Katarina","Zed","Ahri","Lee sin"';
eval('$array=array('.$names.');');
print_r($array);

See result

NOTE: plz note eval is some danger if your string is not that certain, as @jay mentioned.

You can use explode() as follow :

$arr = explode(',',$names); 

Or if you wan to do the opposite use implode().
