IntlChar::enumCharNames — Enumerate all assigned Unicode characters within a range
$start,$end,$callback,$type = IntlChar::UNICODE_CHAR_NAMEEnumerate all assigned Unicode characters between the start and limit code points (start inclusive, limit exclusive) and call a function for each, passing the code point value and the character name.
For Unicode 1.0 names, only those are enumerated that differ from the modern names.
startThe first code point in the enumeration range.
endOne more than the last code point in the enumeration range (the first one after the range).
callbackThe function that is to be called for each character name. The following three arguments will be passed into it:
typeSelector for which kind of names to enumerate. Can be any of these constants:
| Version | Description |

<?php
IntlChar::enumCharNames(0x2600, 0x2610, function($codepoint, $nameChoice, $name) {
printf("U+%04x %s\n", $codepoint, $name);
});
?>The above example will output:
