[SOLVED] Natsort Failing Meh

[StormTheGates]

Can someone explain to me why this dosnt work?

 

$cards = array("2h", "4d", "1s", "5c", "8d");
natsort($cards);
echo "$cards[0]-$cards[1]-$cards[2]-$cards[3]";

 

You would think that it would sort them into 1s-2h-4d-5c

 

But it dosnt, it dosnt seem to sort at all. It just prints out

 

2h-4d-1s-5c

 

Any ideas why? Its driving me insane.

It's working just as stated. From the PHP manual

 

"This function implements a sort algorithm that orders alphanumeric strings in the way a human being would while maintaining key/value associations."

 

print_r ($cards);

 

and you will see it did sort, it doesn't reindex.

 

If you want to re-index you can use array_values

 

$cards = array_values($cards);

Ahhhhhhh I see, is there any way to get it to reindex?
