    [$id] = Str::of($serialNo)->scan('SN/%d');
    return $id;
}

$collection = collect([
    'a' => 2,
    'b' => 33,
    'c' => 44
]);
//get value at the specified key
return $collection->get('a');
//put the value
return $collection->put('a',30);
//get an existing key or put the value if it doesn't exist and return the value
return $collection->getOrPut('a', '30');
