|
Explanation |
|
The "uksort()" function sorts an array by keys using a user-defined comparison function.
Syntax:
uksort(array,sorttypefunction)
In the above syntax "array" is the array to be sorted,with a user defined comparison function.
The user defined function should return 0,1,-1.
Example
<?php
function my_sort($a, $b)
{
if ($a == $b) return 0;
return ($a > $b) ? -1 : 1;
}
$people = array("1" => "Apple",
"2" => "Banana", "3" => "apple",
"4" => "banana");
uksort($people, "my_sort");
while (list($k,$v)= each($people) )
{
echo "$k => $v\n";
}
?>
Result:
4 => banana 3 => apple 2 => Banana 1 => Apple
In the above example the array "$people" is sorted in the descending order using the keys,
displays the values.
