Remove a part of a string, but only when it is at the end of the string

Question

I need to remove a substring of a string, but only when it is at the END of the string.

for example, removing \'string\' at the end of the following strings :

Answer 1

I wrote these two function for left and right trim of a string:

/**
 * @param string    $str           Original string
 * @param string    $needle        String to trim from the end of $str
 * @param bool|true $caseSensitive Perform case sensitive matching, defaults to true
 * @return string Trimmed string
 */
function rightTrim($str, $needle, $caseSensitive = true)
{
    $strPosFunction = $caseSensitive ? "strpos" : "stripos";
    if ($strPosFunction($str, $needle, strlen($str) - strlen($needle)) !== false) {
        $str = substr($str, 0, -strlen($needle));
    }
    return $str;
}

/**
 * @param string    $str           Original string
 * @param string    $needle        String to trim from the beginning of $str
 * @param bool|true $caseSensitive Perform case sensitive matching, defaults to true
 * @return string Trimmed string
 */
function leftTrim($str, $needle, $caseSensitive = true)
{
    $strPosFunction = $caseSensitive ? "strpos" : "stripos";
    if ($strPosFunction($str, $needle) === 0) {
        $str = substr($str, strlen($needle));
    }
    return $str;
}
