How to convert PascalCase to pascal_case?

Question

If I had:

$string = \"PascalCase\";

I need

\"pascal_case\"

Does PHP offer a function for this purpose?

Answer 1

"CamelCase" to "camel_case":

function camelToSnake($camel)
{
    $snake = preg_replace('/[A-Z]/', '_$0', $camel);
    $snake = strtolower($snake);
    $snake = ltrim($snake, '_');
    return $snake;
}

or:

function camelToSnake($camel)
{
    $snake = preg_replace_callback('/[A-Z]/', function ($match){
        return '_' . strtolower($match[0]);
    }, $camel);
    return ltrim($snake, '_');
}
