I need to replace everything after a dot . I know that it can be done with regex but I'm still novice and I don't understand the proper syntax so please help me with this .

I tried the bellow code but doesn't work :

  $x = "340.888888";
$pattern = "/*./"
 $y = preg_replace($pattern, "", $x);
print_r($x);

thanks , Michael
