The mb_preferred_mime_name() function in PHP is used to return the MIME string for the character encoding and it returns the charset string. It gets a MIME (Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions) charset string for the specific encoding.Syntaxstring mb_preferred_mime_name($string_encoding)Parametersmb_preferred_mime_name() accepts only one parameter −$string_encoding − This parameter is used to check the encoding.Return ValuesThe mb_preferred_mime_name() function returns the MIME charset string for the charset encoding. It returns False if no charset is preferred for the given encoding.ExampleLet us now take an example and see how it works −OutputIt will produce the following output −EUC-JP Read More

Suppose we are given an array 'arr' that contains n number of sorted integer values. We are also given an array 'query' of size q, and we have to tell either the values in ‘query’ are present in the given array 'arr' or not. If a value in query is present in arr, we print "Present" along with the position where the value is situated in. Otherwise, we print "Not present" and print the position in arr, where the minimum value greater than the value in query is located. We have to remember that the arrays are 1-indexed.So, if the ...

In PHP, we can use the mb_ord() function to get the Unicode code point value of a given character. This function is supported in PHP 7 or higher versions. The mb_ord() function complements the mc_chr() function.Syntaxint mb_ord($str_string, $str_encoding)Parametersmb_ord() accepts the following two parameters −$str_string − This parameter is used for the string.$str_encoding − This is the character encoding parameter. If it is absent or NULL, then we can use the internal encoding value.Return Valuesmb_ord() returns the Unicode point value for the first character from the given string. It will return False on failure.ExampleOutputIt will produce the following output −Get the ... Read More

The mb_list_encodings() function in PHP is used to return an array of all supported encodings.
