Sorting Arrays

[StormTheGates]

Hello everyone. I am aware of the sort() function, however its not doing what I want it to do. I have an array for cards, and need to sort them. For instance I have this array:

 

array("1s","4d","13h","7d","8c");

 

The problem is that when it sorts it sees 13 lower than 1. Or it notices the 1 before anything so I get a sort like this

 

13h

1s

4d

7d

8c

 

When I really need this

 

1s

4d

7d

8c

13h

 

Any ideas how this could be achieved? Thanks

Ah I figured it out myself. For future reference to anyone having this problem, I believe that

 

natsort()

 

Works for sorting naturally .

change it so its like this...

 

array("01s","04d","13h","07d","08c");

 

which would sort to...

01s

04d

07d

08c

13h

 

then in your function(s) just put

 

if($string{0}=="0") $string=substr($string,1);

or whatnot :-)

<?php
$X = array("1s","4d","13h","7d","8c");
print_r($X);
natsort($X);
print_r($X);

?>
