pregmatch separate number and character

BC1024 , AB124 , CBC2548 ,

using preg match to separate the number and character ,

For that 开发者_JAVA百科i tried this preg match expression , but its not working greatly ,

preg_match_all('/(?P\w+): (?P\d+)/', $flight_code_no, $matches,PREG_PATTERN_ORDER);

i want output as

Array
(
    [0] => BC1024: 2008
    [name] => BC
    [1] => BC
    [digit] => 1024
    [2] => 1024
)

But my preg match not working....

just shoing empty array,

preg_match('/(?<name>[A-Z]+)(?<digit>\d+)/', 'BC1024', $result);

This gives

Array
(
    [0] => BC1024
    [name] => BC
    [1] => BC
    [digit] => 1024
    [2] => 1024
)

Just to show that you don't need preg_match to split a simple string like that:

list($name,$digit) = sscanf($flight_code_no,'%[A-Z]%d');

Running

<?php

foreach (array("BC1024", "AB124","CBC2548") as $v) {
  preg_match_all("/(?P<name>[A-Z]+)(?P<digit>\d+)/", $v, $matches); 
  var_dump($matches);
}

outputs (some newlines removed for brewity)

  [0]=>       array(1) {    [0]=>    string(6) "BC1024"  }
  ["name"]=>  array(1) {    [0]=>    string(2) "BC"  }
