Hey guys,

All you people will probably find this easy, but I'm having a hard time with it...

How would you count all the numbers in a string together, past a certain point?

Let's say my string is this:

Person 1 - 60
AnotherPerson 2 - Extra Value - 42
YetAnotherOne - 61

I want that to output '163', which is 60+42+61. I just want to add the values after the last ' - ', but I honestly have no idea how to do that!

Thanks,

First you have to break it into numbers.

$break = explode(" - ",$source);
$number = $break[1];

Then you can add them up

$total = $total + $number;

hm ... I just noticed the extra value

$break = explode(" - ",$source);
$number = $break[count($break)-1];
$total = $total + $number;
