按规则解码字符串

按规则解码字符串

请实现以下函数string decode(string str),该函数功能是解密一个给迪昂字符串，解密的规则是将两个数字间（前面没有数字的情况下算开头和数字间）的字符串重复数字次数，比如a2bc3d1，解密为 aabcbcbcd

<?php 
function readstr($str, $len, $start) {
    $end = $start;
    
    while ( $end < $len && !is_numeric($str[$end]) ) { $end++;}
    
    return [substr($str, $start, $end-$start), $end];
}

function readnums($str, $len, $start) {
    $end = $start;
    while ( $end < $len && is_numeric($str[$end]) ) {$end++;}
   
    return [substr($str, $start, $end-$start), $end];
}

function decode($str) {
    $res = '';
    $i = 0;
    $len = strlen($str);
    while ($i < $len) {
        list($key, $i) = readstr($str, $len, $i);
        list($val, $i) = readnums($str, $len, $i);
        while ($val--) {
            $res .= $key;
        }
    }

    return $res;
}

print_r(decode('a1')."\n");
//a
print_r(decode('ab2c3')."\n");
//ababccc
print_r(decode('a2bc12d3')."\n");
//aabcbcbcbcbcbcbcbcbcbcbcbcddd
