Re: [PHP] Sort an array by its values

2001-07-08 Thread Chris Lambert - WhiteCrown Networks

Do you mean something like www.php.net/ksort or www.php.net/krsort?

I'm not sure of the actual structure of your array, though, so those might
not work as expected.

Chris,
  I'm looking at ksort as i type... the problem i'm having is that i'm
trying to sort a value inside an object inside that array (rather than
paired values in an assoc. array)

Can you print_r($variable) and post it here?

RE: [PHP] Sort an array by its values

2001-07-08 Thread Andrew Braund

I think array_multisort is supposed to do this but I couldn't get it to
work.

Have a look at the usort call in the following routine;

// Reads a directory and puts filenames into a array sorted by date
function GetFiles ($DataPath, $files, $nfiles) {
  $handle=@opendir($DataPath);
  if ($handle) {
$nfiles = 0;
while (false!==($file = readdir($handle))) {
  if ($file != .  $file != .. ) {
$files[$nfiles][name] = $file;
$files[$nfiles][date] = filemtime($DataPath.\\.$file);
$nfiles++;
  }
}
if($nfiles1){
  usort($files,
create_function(
'$a,$b',
'return $a[date]==$b[date]?0:($a[date]$b[date]?1:-1);')
  );
}
closedir($handle);
  }
}

RE: [PHP] Sort an array by its values

2001-07-08 Thread Aaron Bennett

Chris,
   Due to the amount of HTML contained within the object, it would be nearly
impossible to decipher from a print_r() the way it was... I was able to make
an assoc. array with the id as the key and score as value, so i get
something more like:

Array ( [29] = 152 [13] = 98 [58] = 134 [6] = 66 [9] = 66 [15] = 68
[18] = 86 [49] = 66 [50] = 104 [51] = 66 [52] = 66 [59] = 100 [61] =
68 [66] = 68 )

which i should be able to use uasort() and array_reverse() to order them and
maintain the correct index...

Thanks for the help, i think i got it from here.

Re: [PHP] Sort an array by its values

2001-07-08 Thread Justin Farnsworth

Try something like:

uasort($your_hash[$first_level][$any_second_level],
 create_function('$a,$b', 'return $a[what_level] -
$b[what_level];'));

and adjust this according to the level and what you want to sort on
accordingly...
