split()-used for JavaScript for processing the string and the explode()-used to convert the String to Array, implode()-used for convert the array to String.

split() can work using regular expressions.but Explode use only single value to explode string into Array
Here the Example

<?php
$date = “04/30/1973″;
list($month, $day, $year) = split(‘[/.-]’, $date);
?>
………………………………………………………………………

<?php
$x=”PHP is a ServerSide Scripting Language”;
$c=explode(” “,$x);
print_r($c);
$d=implode(” “,$c);
echo ”
“.$d;
?>
