README

Use this class to read a sentence and get all the characters from it in a collection. So you know exactly how many times a character is being used in a sentence.

Installation

composer require jeroendesloovere/character-collection

Example

$collection = new CharacterCollection('This is my sentence.');

Which is a collection of all the characters that are used in your sentence + the positions that they are on. Example off how to get the positions of t

$collection->get('t')->getPositions();

Will return [0, 14].

Documentation

The class is well documented inline. If you use a decent IDE you'll see that each method is documented with PHPDoc.
