Actually it looks like PHP supports both explode() and split(), and 
their inverse functions implode() and join(). split() appears to split 
the string by regular expression, whereas explode() splits by a simple 
string separator.

I was not intending to support regex in split(), so maybe the best 
choice of names is explode() and implode()?
