[RESOLVED] Saving words in text string to array

[faisalmajeed]

This is a very basic question but since I am new to php I am looking for some help on this

If i have a text string "Saab and Volvo are Swedish cars."

I would like each word in it stored in an array car as as such,

$cars[0]="Saab";
$cars[1]="and";
$cars[2]="volvo";
$cars[3]="are";
$cars[4]="swedish";
$cars[5]="cars";
$cars[6]=".";

How do i achieve this thank you

$str = 'Saab and Volvo are Swedish cars.';
$str = str_replace('.', ' .', $str);
$arr = explode(' ',$str);
var_dump($cars);
