rsort

说明

bool rsort ( array &array [, int sort_flags] )

本函数对数组进行逆向排序（最高到最低）。

注: 本函数为 array 中的单元赋予新的键名。这将删除原有的键名而不仅是重新排序。

如果成功则返回 TRUE，失败则返回 FALSE。

例子 1. rsort() 例子
<?php $fruits = array("lemon", "orange", "banana", "apple"); rsort($fruits); foreach ($fruits as $key => $val) { echo "$key = $val\n"; } ?>
上例将输出：
0 = orange 1 = lemon 2 = banana 3 = apple

fruits 被按照字母顺序逆向排序。

可以用可选参数 sort_flags 改变排序的行为，详情见 sort()。

参见 arsort()，asort()，ksort()，krsort()，sort() 和 usort()。

A cleaner (I think) way to sort a list of files into reversed order based on their modification date.



<?php

   $path = $_SERVER[DOCUMENT_ROOT]."/files/";

   $dh = @opendir($path);



   while (false !== ($file=readdir($dh)))

   {

      if (substr($file,0,1)!=".")

         $files[]=array(filemtime($path.$file),$file);   #2-D array

   }

   closedir($dh);



   if ($files)

   {

      rsort($files); #sorts by filemtime



      #done! Show the files sorted by modification date

      foreach ($files as $file)

         echo "$file[0] $file[1]<br>\n";  #file[0]=Unix timestamp; file[1]=filename

   }

?>

I needed a function that would sort a list of files into reversed order based on their modification date.



Here's what I came up with:



function display_content($dir,$ext){



    $f = array();

    if (is_dir($dir)) {

        if ($dh = opendir($dir)) {

            while (($folder = readdir($dh)) !== false) {

                if (preg_match("/\s*$ext$/", $folder)) {

                    $fullpath = "$dir/$folder";

                    $mtime = filemtime ($fullpath);

                

                    $ff = array($mtime => $fullpath);

                    $f = array_merge($f, $ff);

                       

            }             

                }



            



            rsort($f, SORT_NUMERIC);



            while (list($key, $val) = each($f)) {

                $fcontents = file($val, "r");

                while (list($key, $val) = each($fcontents)) 

                    echo "$val\n";

            }



        }

    }

        

        closedir($dh);

}



Call it like so:



display_content("folder","extension");

Like sort(), rsort() assigns new keys for the elements in array. It will remove any existing keys you may have assigned, rather than just reordering the keys.  This means that it will destroy associative keys.



$animals = array("dog"=>"large",  "cat"=>"medium",  "mouse"=>"small");

print_r($animals);

//Array ( [dog] => large [cat] => medium [mouse] => small )



rsort($animals);

print_r($animals);

//Array ( [0] => small [1] => medium [2] => large ) 



Use KSORT() or KRSORT() to preserve associative keys.

Apparently rsort does not put arrays with one value back to zero.  If you have an array like: $tmp = array(9 => 'asdf') and then rsort it, $tmp[0] is empty and $tmp[9] stays as is.

I thought rsort was working successfully or on a multi-dimensional array of strings that had first been sorted with usort(). But, I noticed today that the array  was only partially in descending order.  I tried array_reverse on it and that seems to have solved things.
