ArrayObject::ksort
(PHP 5 >= 5.2.0, PHP 7, PHP 8)
ArrayObject::ksort — Sort the entries by key
Description
public ArrayObject::ksort(int $flags = SORT_REGULAR): bool
Sorts the entries by key, maintaining key to entry correlations. This is useful mainly for associative arrays.
Note:
If two members compare as equal, they retain their original order. Prior to PHP 8.0.0, their relative order in the sorted array was undefined.
Parameters
flags
The optional second parameter
flags
may be used to modify the sorting behavior using these values:Sorting type flags:
- SORT_REGULAR - compare items normally; the details are described in the comparison operators section
- SORT_NUMERIC - compare items numerically
- SORT_STRING - compare items as strings
-
SORT_LOCALE_STRING
- compare items as strings, based on the current locale. It uses the locale, which can be changed using setlocale() -
SORT_NATURAL
- compare items as strings using "natural ordering" like natsort() -
SORT_FLAG_CASE
- can be combined (bitwise OR) withSORT_STRING
orSORT_NATURAL
to sort strings case-insensitively
Return Values
Always returns true.
Examples
Example #1 ArrayObject::ksort() example
<?php
$fruits = array("d" => "lemon", "a" => "orange", "b" => "banana", "c" => "apple");
$fruitArrayObject = new ArrayObject($fruits);
$fruitArrayObject->ksort();
foreach ($fruitArrayObject as $key => $val) {
echo "$key = $val\n";
}
?>
The above example will output:
a = orange b = banana c = apple d = lemon
