Synopsis

$string = tr($string, $list1, $list2)

Substitutes all of the characters in list1 that exist in string with the equivalent character in list2 (e.g.,tr("Robby","oy","ai") would return the string “Rabbi”). The list of characters can contain a range of characters separated with "-". For instance, tr("e.e. cummings", "a-z," "A-Z") will return the string “E.E. CUMMINGS.”
