note 118193 added to function.array-multisort

Super easy and simple way to sort a keyed multiarray while maintaining all associative keys including numeric. This is awesome! <?php // returns sorted multiarray by its subarray's sortkey in given sortorder while keeping all keys function maSort($ma = '', $sortkey = '', $sortorder = 1) { // sortorder: 1=asc, 2=desc if ($ma && is_array($ma) && $sortkey) { // confirm inputs foreach ($ma as $k=>$a) $temp[$k] = $a[$sortkey]; // save temp array to be sorted if ($sortorder == 2) { // descending arsort($temp); } else { asort($temp); // ascending } $newma = array_replace($temp, $ma); // combine to keep order of sorted array but with original $ma info unset($ma, $temp); // release memory return $newma; } } ?> ---- Server IP: 72.52.91.14 Probable Submitter: 2602:306:832a:9cc0:6006:bd21:ea40:84b ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.array-multisort.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/118193 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118193/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118193/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118193/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118193/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118193/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118193/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/118193 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/118193 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
