I am trying to parse the MySQL data types returned by "DESCRIBE [TABLE]".
It returns strings like:
int(11)
float
varchar(200)
int(11) unsigned
float(6,2)
I've tried to do the job using regular expressions but it's not working.
PHP CODE:
$string = "int(11) numeric";
$regex = '/(\w+)\s*(\w+)/';
var_dump( preg_split($regex, $string) );
