convert Persian/Arabic numbers to English numbers

Here’s a short function:

function convert($string) {
    $persian = ['۰', '۱', '۲', '۳', '۴', '۵', '۶', '۷', '۸', '۹'];
    $arabic = ['٠', '١', '٢', '٣', '٤', '٥', '٦', '٧', '٨', '٩'];

    $num = range(0, 9);
    $convertedPersianNums = str_replace($persian, $num, $string);
    $englishNumbersOnly = str_replace($arabic, $num, $convertedPersianNums);
    
    return $englishNumbersOnly;
}

You can use the unicode instead of the characters in $persian (I think).
