Programmer: I'm trying to find the most frequent word in a string using PHP. Can you help me come up with an efficient solution?
ChatGPT: Sure! One way to solve this problem in PHP is to split the string into an array of words using the explode() function, and then use the array_count_values() function to count the occurrence of each word. Here's an example code snippet:
$string = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog";
$words = explode(" ", $string);
$word_count = array_count_values($words);
arsort($word_count);
$most_frequent_word = array_key_first($word_count);
This code snippet will split the string into an array of words, count the occurrence of each word, sort the array in descending order based on the word count, and then return the most frequent word.
