Question

How is this function numtoalpha to print out the alphabetic equivalents of values that will be greater than 9 used?
Results, something like this: 10 for A, 11 for B, etc….

PHP.net does not even have that function or i did not look in the correct place, but I am sure it said functions.

<?php
$number = $_REQUEST["number"];
/*Create a condition that is true here to get us started*/
if ($number <=9)
{
echo $number;
}
elseif ($number >9 && $number <=35) 
{
echo $number;
function numtoalpha($number)
{
echo $number;
}
echo"<br/>Print all the numbers from 10 to 35, with alphabetic equivalents:A for10,etc";
?>

Answer 1

you need to use base_convert:

$number = $_REQUEST["number"];   # '10'
base_convert($number, 10, 36);   # 'a'
