What alternative methods can be used to remove or replace consecutive ">>" characters in a string in PHP?

Consecutive ">>" characters in a string can be removed or replaced using regular expressions in PHP. One way to achieve this is by using the preg_replace function with a regex pattern that matches consecutive ">>" characters and replaces them with a single ">>" character. 

// Input string with consecutive ">>" characters
$inputString = "Hello>>world! This is a test>>string.";

// Remove consecutive ">>" characters and replace them with a single ">>"
$outputString = preg_replace('/>>+/', '>>', $inputString);

// Output the modified string
echo $outputString;
