# unpack

(PHP 3, PHP 4, PHP 5)

unpack -- Unpack data from binary string

## Descrição

array unpack ( string format, string data )

Unpacks from a binary string into an array according to the given `format`.

unpack() works slightly different from Perl as the unpacked data is stored in an associative array. To accomplish this you have to name the different format codes and separate them by a slash /.

## Parâmetros

`format`

  See pack() for an explanation of the format codes.

`data`

  The packed data.

## Valores de retornado

Returns an associative array containing unpacked elements of binary string.

## Exemplos

Exemplo 1. unpack() example
`<?php $array = unpack("c2chars/nint", $binarydata); ?>`
The resulting array will contain the entries "chars1", "chars2" and "int".

## Notas

Cuidado
Note that PHP internally stores integral values as signed. If you unpack a large unsigned long and it is of the same size as PHP internally stored values the result will be a negative number even though unsigned unpacking was specified.
