ksort

(PHP 3, PHP 4 >= 4.0.0)

ksort -- Sort an array by key

Description

int ksort (array array [, int sort_flags])

Sorts an array by key, maintaining key to data correlations. This is useful mainly for associative arrays.

Example 1. ksort() example


$fruits = array ("d"=>"lemon", "a"=>"orange", "b"=>"banana", "c"=>"apple");
ksort ($fruits);
reset ($fruits);
while (list ($key, $val) = each ($fruits)) {
    echo "$key = $val\n";
}
      

This example would display:


a = orange
b = banana
c = apple
d = lemon
      

You may modify the behavior of the sort using the optional parameter sort_flags, for details see sort().

See also asort(), arsort(), sort(), natsort(), and rsort().

Note: The second parameter was added in PHP 4.
