PHP | array_multisort () Функция
Array_multisort () - это встроенная функция в PHP, которая используется для одновременной сортировки нескольких массивов или многомерного массива с каждым отдельным измерением.
При использовании этой функции следует помнить, что строковые ключи будут сохранены, но числовые ключи будут повторно проиндексированы, начиная с 0 и увеличиваясь на 1.
Синтаксис:
bool array_multisort ($ array1, sorting_order, sorting_type, $ array2 ..)
Parameters: The array generally takes one parameter that is the array which needs to be sorted. But in addition, the function can take two more optional parameters sorting_order and sorting_type.
- $array1: This parameter specifies the array which we want to sort.
- sorting_order: This parameter specifies the order to use i.e. in ascending or descending order. The default value of this parameter is SORT_ASC. That is, sorting in ascending order. In order to sort in descending order we will have to set this parameter to SORT_DESC.
- sorting_type: This parameter specifies the sort options for the arrays and they are as follows:
- SORT_REGULAR: Compare elements regularly(Standard ASCII).
- SORT_NUMERIC: Compare elements as numeric-values.
- SORT_STRING: Compare elements as string values.
- SORT_LOCALE_STRING: Compare elements as string, based on the current locale.
- SORT_NATURAL: Compare elements as strings using “natural ordering”.
- SORT_FLAG_CASE: Can be combined (bitwise OR) with SORT_STRING or SORT_NATURAL to sort strings case-insensitively.
If we want to sort multiple arrays, we can pass them as parameters like $array2, $array3… followed by their sorting_order, sorting_type.
Return value: The array_multisort() function returns a boolean value. That is it will return TRUE on success and FALSE on failure.
Note:If two members on comparing become equal, their relative order in sorted array is undefined.
Below programs illustrate the array_multisort() function:
Program 1:
<?php // Input array $animals = array ( "Dog" , "Cat" , "Horse" , "Bear" , "Zebra" , "Lion" ); // sorting array using default values // for sorting_order and sorting_type array_multisort ( $animals ); print_r( $animals ); ?> |
Output:
Array ( [0] => Bear [1] => Cat [2] => Dog [3] => Horse [4] => Lion [5] => Zebra )
Program 2:
<?php // Input arrays $array1 = array ( "Dog" , "Cat" ); $array2 = array ( "Fido" , "Missy" ); // sorting multiple arrays using default values // for sorting_order and sorting_type array_multisort ( $array1 , $array2 ); // printing sorted arrays print_r( $array1 ); print_r( $array2 ); ?> |
Output:
Array ( [0] => Cat [1] => Dog ) Array ( [0] => Missy [1] => Fido )
Program 3:
<?php // Input arrays $array1 = array ( "Dog" , "Dog" , "Cat" ); $array2 = array ( "Pluto" , "Fido" , "Missy" ); // sorting multiple arrays array_multisort ( $array1 , SORT_ASC, $array2 , SORT_DESC); // Printing sorted arrays print_r( $array1 ); print_r( $array2 ); ?> |
Output:
Array ( [0] => Cat [1] => Dog [2] => Dog ) Array ( [0] => Missy [1] => Pluto [2] => Fido )
