How to get custom characters from very large string in PHP-CodePudding

I have a string of currencies - currency code, name and rates (first rate is units per EUR and second is EUR per unit).

string(6429) "                                USD     US Dollar       1,164342        0,858854        
EUR     Euro1,000000 1,000000        GBP     British Pound   0,842392        1,187096        
INR     Indian Rupee    87,128927       0,011477        AUD     Australian Dollar    1,549853        0,645222        CAD     Canadian Dollar 1,435142        0,696795        SGD     Singapore Dollar        1,564234        0,639291    CHF      Swiss Franc     1,070921        0,933776        MYR     Malaysian Ringgit       4,846357        0,206341        JPY     Japanese Yen    132,999525  0,007519 CNY     Chinese Yuan Renminbi   7,444264        0,134332        NZD     New Zealand Dollar      1,616910        0,618464        THB     Thai Baht   38,890927        0,025713        HUF     Hungarian Forint        362,270767      0,002760        AED     Emirati Dirham  4,276047        0,233861        HKD Hong Kong Dollar 9,052195        0,110470        MXN     Mexican Peso    23,485298       0,042580        ZAR     South African Rand      16,811235       0,059484     PHP     Philippine Peso 59,132446       0,016911

and so on... IMPORTANT - This is copy/paste string so whitespace count is like in example and it can be random between integers and words. String is in one line without line breaks.

So my goal here is to get currency code and currency rate "unit per EUR" (first value)

Preferable output associative array.

Example:

$pairs = [
    'USD' => 1,164342,
    'GBP' => 0,842392,
];

and so on for every currency.

I can't use any API.

Can anyone help me with this task?

preg_match_all('/(USD|GBP)[^\d]*(\d*,?\d*)/', $string, $output);

if ($output) {
    var_dump(array_combine($output[1], $output[2]));
}

Just change list of currencies if you need something else like only usd and gbp will be USD|GBP and so on
