Extract filename with extension from filepath string

$text = "bob/hello/myfile.zip";
$file_name = end(explode("/", $text));
echo $file_name; // myfile.zip

end() returns the last element of a given array.

For more general needs, use negative value for start parameter.
For e.g.

<?php
$str = '001234567890';
echo substr($str,-10,4);
?>

will output
1234

Using a negative parameter means that it starts from the start'th character from the end.
