[php] PHP split alternative?

I want to clear here that preg_split(); is far away from it but explode(); can be used in similar way as split();

following is the comparison between split(); and explode(); usage

How was split() used

<?php

$date = "04/30/1973";
list($month, $day, $year) = split('[/.-]', $date);
echo $month; // foo
echo $day; // *
echo $year;

?>

How explode() can be used

<?php

$data = "04/30/1973";
list($month, $day, $year) = explode("/", $data);
echo $month; // foo
echo $day; // *
echo $year;

?>

Here is how we can use it :)
