IntlChar::getBidiPairedBracket

(PHP 7, PHP 8)

IntlChar::getBidiPairedBracketGet the paired bracket character for a code point

Description

public static IntlChar::getBidiPairedBracket(mixed $codepoint): mixed

Maps the specified character to its paired bracket character.

For Bidi_Paired_Bracket_Type!=None, this is the same as IntlChar::charMirror(). Otherwise codepoint itself is returned.

Parameters

codepoint

The int codepoint value (e.g. 0x2603 for U+2603 SNOWMAN), or the character encoded as a UTF-8 string (e.g. "\u{2603}")

Return Values

Returns the paired bracket code point, or codepoint itself if there is no such mapping.

The return type will be int unless the code point was passed as a UTF-8 string, in which case a string will be returned.

Examples

Example #1 Testing different code points

<?php
var_dump
(IntlChar::getBidiPairedBracket(91));
var_dump(IntlChar::getBidiPairedBracket('['));
?>

The above example will output:

int(93)
string(1) "]"
