check if is multibyte string in PHP

Question

I want to check if is a string type multibyte on PHP. Have any idea how to accomplish this?

Example:

Answer 1

There are two interpretations. The first is that every character is multibyte. The second is that the string contains one multibyte character at least. If you have an interest for handling invalid byte sequence, see https://stackoverflow.com/a/13695364/531320 for details.

function is_all_multibyte($string)
{
    // check if the string doesn't contain invalid byte sequence
    if (mb_check_encoding($string, 'UTF-8') === false) return false;

    $length = mb_strlen($string, 'UTF-8');

    for ($i = 0; $i < $length; $i += 1) {

        $char = mb_substr($string, $i, 1, 'UTF-8');

        // check if the string doesn't contain single character
        if (mb_check_encoding($char, 'ASCII')) {

            return false;

        }

    }

    return true;

}

function contains_any_multibyte($string)
{
    return !mb_check_encoding($string, 'ASCII') && mb_check_encoding($string, 'UTF-8');
}

$data = ['東京', 'Tokyo', '東京(Tokyo)'];

var_dump(
    [true, false, false] ===
    array_map(function($v) {
        return is_all_multibyte($v);
    },
    $data),
    [true, false, true] ===
    array_map(function($v) {
        return contains_any_multibyte($v);
    },
    $data)
);
