Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

Hi,
In your code, the syllable_count function, there is an array of 
$arrSubSyllables, and below is the caculation code:

foreach ($arrSubSyllables as $strSyllable) {
    $intSyllableCount -= preg_match('~' . $strSyllable . '~', $strWord);
}

what is the meaning of '~'? It seems you didn't use "//" as standard 
delimiter.

You can use pretty much any character as a delimiter. No idea why I used the 
tilde.
