hi

Can you please explain this to me..How did you get 6 here?



Here is what the tutorial SAYS:


Using the strpos() function
The strpos() function is used to search for a string or character within a string.

If a match is found in the string, this function will return the position of the first match. If no match is found, it will return FALSE.

Let's see if we can find the string "world" in our string:

<?php
echo strpos("Hello world!","world");
?>

The output of the code above will be:

6

As you see the position of the string "world" in our string is position 6. The reason that it is 6, and not 7, is that the first position in the string is 0, and not 1.

WHAT does it mean, what are they saying 0 and not 1? and how did they come up with 6 ?




thanks for helping me!!
