In case you want to get results -1, 0 or 1 always, like JS indexOf(); <?php function cmp(string $str1, string $str2): int { return ($str1 > $str2) - ($str1 < $str2); } $str1 = 'a'; $str2 = 'z'; var_dump(cmp($str1, $str2), strcmp($str1, $str2)); //=> int(-1) int(-25) int(-25) $str1 = 'a'; $str2 = '1'; var_dump(cmp($str1, $str2), strcmp($str1, $str2)); //=> int(1) int(48) int(48) ?> ---- Server IP: 208.43.231.9 Probable Submitter: 185.85.3.142 (proxied: 77.111.247.140) ---- Manual Page -- http://php.net/manual/en/function.strcmp.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/123607 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123607/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123607/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123607/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123607/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123607/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123607/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/123607 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/123607 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
