Program/Source Code:

The source code to check a sub-string exists within the given string using a regular expression pattern is given below. The given program is compiled and executed successfully.

<?php
//PHP program to check a substring is exists 
//within the given string using regular expression pattern.
$str = "www.includehelp.com";
$pattern = "/includehelp/";

$res = preg_match($pattern, $str);

if ($res == 1)
{
    printf("Substring found successfully");
}
else
{
    printf("Substring did not find in the string");
}
?>

Output:

Substring found successfully

Explanation:

Here, we created a string variable $str, which is initialized with "www.includehelp.com". After that, we used a pattern to search substring in the specified string. Here we used the preg_match() function that will return 1 on a successful match, otherwise, it will return 0. Then we used the if condition to print the appropriate message on the webpage.
