PHP - Sort Array By Most Recent For This Month.
Hi all,
I have a multi-dimensional array looking somewhat like the following: Array ( [0] => Array ( [id] => 853 [title] => item 853 [price] => 17.99 [createdtime] => yyyy-mm-dd 00:00:00 ) [1] => Array ( [id] => 854 [title] => item 854 [price] => 11.99 [createdtime] => yyyy-mm-dd 00:00:00 ) ... I need to re-order this array so that any items with the 'createdtime' within a month from todays date are at the top, followed by all of the other items in the original order. I would usually amend the sql but I need to do this with the array. What would be the best way to do this? I found array_multisort but im not too sure how to adapt this to my needs. Thank you for any help with this! Similar TutorialsHello, not sure if lack of sleep or just staring at code too long. This is what I have: Code: [Select] while($rowy = mysql_fetch_array( $resulty )) { mpdate = YYYY-MM-DD $date = $rowy['mpdate']; $year = explode('-', $date); $month = date("F", mktime(0, 0, 0, $year[1])); ?> <?php echo $year[0]; ?> <br> <?php echo $month; ?> <br> <?php echo $rowy['mptitle']; } ?> I figure if I use: if ($year[0] == date('Y"){ echo month and entry stuff } but I keep getting errors. What I am trying to do is sort everything out into year month and day ie: 2012 March Entry 1 Entry 2 February Entry 1 Entry 2 Entry 3 etc... This is what I am getting 2012 March Entry 1 2012 March Entry 2 2012 February Entry 1 etc... Is there a way to fix this? I have been struggling with this for awhile now, and I think it isn't as hard as I making it. Basically I want to "group" my array by month making a multidimensional array by months. Basically right now my print_r($my_array) outputs: Code: [Select] Array ( [0] => stdClass Object ( [id] => 2 [did] => 2 [dates] => 2011-06-01 [enddates] => 2011-06-01 [shortdescription] =>

The array has information about listings. ID, name, info etc. An unrelated set of data also contains the listing ID's and I have made a function to sort this array and show an new order for the ID's. I now need to sort the original array by this new ID order... This snippet shows that the original listings array can be sorted by link_id: sort($this->links, $this->link->link_id); //This works. It sorts links by link ID! In a foeach loop I have created this: $sleeps_array[] = array("ID" => $link->link_id, "Sleeps" => $sleeps); // Makes an array of arrays of a custom field with listing ID. It makes this: array ( 0 => array ( 'ID' => '9', 'Sleeps' => '2', ), 1 => array ( 'ID' => '3', 'Sleeps' => '4', ), 2 => array ( 'ID' => '6', 'Sleeps' => '6', ), ) I can then sort this array of arrays with this function: function compare_sleeps($a, $b){ return strnatcmp($a['Sleeps'], $b['Sleeps']); } # sort alphabetically by name usort($sleeps_array, 'compare_sleeps'); It then gives me a sorted array according to "Sleeps" (as in, the number of people a property can cater for). It has the correct order of ID to then output but how do I organise the original array by ID with this new array? Sounds complicated, I hope you got that! Cheers, RJP1 Why does krsort return the array as "1"? Code: [Select] $m = array('34' => 1122, '6' => 1944, '9' => 1710); print_r($m); //outputs: Array ( [34] => 1122 [6] => 1944 [9] => 1710 ) print_r(krsort($m)); //outputs: 1 What i need is the output to be Array ( [6] => 1944 [9] => 1710 [34] => 1122) Is there a way to use sort($Array) on numbers but reverse it. So instead of 1 to 3 itll do 3 to 1 ? AKA descending order? Can't find a function that would do unless theres a second sort function ? Thanks Hi, I have an array of type array_name[roll_number][aggregate_marks]. How do I sort such array on 'aggregate_marks'? My attempts on sort, asort haven't worked. Hi freaks, Got a simple one for ya, I THINK? I have a multi-array that resembles this.. Code: [Select] $_SESSION["book_array"] = array(0 => array("plantID" => $plantID, "botanicalName" => $botanicalName, "commonName" => $commonName, "use" => $use)); I would like to sort it by the botanicalName key of the inner array before I call the forech loop that renders the display so that after it renders the table the items will be seen alphabetically, code below.. Code: [Select] <?php $bookOutput = ""; //$plant_use_array = ''; if (!isset($_SESSION["book_array"]) || count($_SESSION["book_array"]) < 1) { $bookOutput = '<tr><td colspan="4"><h6>Your Book is EMPTY!</h6></td></tr>'; } else { // Start the For Each loop $i = 0; foreach ($_SESSION["book_array"] as $each_item) { $plantID = $each_item['plantID']; $botanicalName = $each_item['botanicalName']; $botanicalName = stripslashes($botanicalName); $commonName = $each_item['commonName']; $commonName = stripslashes($commonName); $use = $each_item['use']; //$x = $i + 1; // Dynamic table row assembly $bookOutput .= "<tr>"; $bookOutput .= '<td><a href="plant_details.php?plantID=' . $plantID . '" id="bodyLink">' . $botanicalName . '</a></td>'; $bookOutput .= '<td>' . $commonName . '</td>'; $bookOutput .= '<td><strong>' . $use . '</strong></td>'; $bookOutput .= '<td><form action="book.php" method="post"><input name="removeBtn" type="submit" value="Remove"/><input name="index_to_remove" type="hidden" value="' . $i . '" /></form></td>'; $bookOutput .= '</tr>'; $i++; } } ?> Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance. I've got a multidimensional array that has 2 columns. The first column is numerical (country_id), and the second column is text (country_name), which may or may not be data that will be turned into an array. Looks something like this: column 1 (index 0) = 42 column 2 (index 1) = Great Britain|England I use a while loop to create an array of these rows, then a use a foreach loop to go through index[1] of each row. If there is a single name for a country, it is added to a new array, but if there is more than one name for a country, then both names are added to the new array. So, for example, if we had this data: row1 column 1 (index 0) = 12 column 2 (index 1) = Algeria row2 column 1 (index 0) = 22 column 2 (index 1) = Ethiopia row3 column 1 (index 0) =42 column 2 (index 1) = Great Britain|England Then the final array would look like this: index[0] = 12 index[1] = Algeria index[0] = 22 index[1] = Ethiopia index[0] = 42 index[1] = Great Britain index[0] = 42 index[1] = England Now I would like to sort by index[1] to get the following alphabetical order: index[0] = 12 index[1] = Algeria index[0] = 42 index[1] = England index[0] = 22 index[1] = Ethiopia index[0] = 42 index[1] = Great Britain What do I use? I've fooled around with sort, usort, asort ... can't figure it out. Thanks in advance. I have a bunch of PDF's, some of them having Uppercase first letters and some having lowercase first letters. Right now my code is alphabetizing all of the Uppercase first letters first then all of the lowercase. I want them to be mixed. $dir = "../../forms/pdf/"; foreach(glob($dir.'*.pdf') as $pdf){ $files[] = str_replace($dir, '', $pdf); } then: <select name="current_pdf" id="current_pdf"> <option value="">Please Select a PDF to replace</option> <?php foreach($files as $file) { echo "<option value=\"$file\">" . $file . "</option>"; } ?> </select> hi, i'm trying to sort an array of associative arrays, based on one of the keys. if the value of the key is a primitive, normal sorting occurs - this works fine. if the value of the key is an array, i'd like to have it sorted by "groups" here's an example: Code: [Select] <?php $data[] = array('name' => 'h', 'list' => array(1,2)); $data[] = array('name' => 'g', 'list' => array(1)); $data[] = array('name' => 'a', 'list' => array(1,3)); $data[] = array('name' => 'f', 'list' => array(2)); $data[] = array('name' => 'e', 'list' => array(2,3)); $data[] = array('name' => 'b', 'list' => array(3)); $data[] = array('name' => 'c', 'list' => array(1,2,3,4)); $data[] = array('name' => 'd', 'list' => array(3,4)); function deep_sort($array, $sorton){ usort($array, function($a, $b) use($sorton) { $a = $a[$sorton]; $b = $b[$sorton]; if(is_array($a) && is_array($b)){ // this bit is obviously flawed - only included for illustrative purposes $a = implode('', $a); $b = implode('', $b); } return ($a == $b) ? 0 : ($a > $b) ? 1 : -1; }); return $array; } $sorted_by_name = deep_sort($data, 'name'); print '<pre>'; print_r($sorted_by_name); print '</pre>'; $sorted_by_list = deep_sort($data, 'list'); print '<pre>'; print_r($sorted_by_list); print '</pre>'; ?> the sorted_by_name bit is fine - but for sorted_by_list, what i want returned is all the array ordered as follows: all those with "1" (or the lowest if none have "1") in it's list value first, then all those remaining that have the next highest ("2"), etc. so right now, the returns for sort_by_list look like this: Code: [Select] Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => g [list] => Array ( [0] => 1 ) ) [1] => Array ( [name] => f [list] => Array ( [0] => 2 ) ) [2] => Array ( [name] => b [list] => Array ( [0] => 3 ) ) [3] => Array ( [name] => h [list] => Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 2 ) ) [4] => Array ( [name] => a [list] => Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 3 ) ) [5] => Array ( [name] => e [list] => Array ( [0] => 2 [1] => 3 ) ) [6] => Array ( [name] => d [list] => Array ( [0] => 3 [1] => 4 ) ) [7] => Array ( [name] => c [list] => Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 2 [2] => 3 [3] => 4 ) ) )whereas i'd like to get back: Code: [Select] Array ( [0] => Array ( [name] => g [list] => Array ( [0] => 1 ) ) [1] => Array ( [name] => h [list] => Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 2 ) ) [2] => Array ( [name] => c [list] => Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 2 [2] => 3 [3] => 4 ) ) [3] => Array ( [name] => a [list] => Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 3 ) ) [4] => Array ( [name] => f [list] => Array ( [0] => 2 ) ) [5] => Array ( [name] => e [list] => Array ( [0] => 2 [1] => 3 ) ) [6] => Array ( [name] => b [list] => Array ( [0] => 3 ) ) [7] => Array ( [name] => d [list] => Array ( [0] => 3 [1] => 4 ) ) ) TYIA for any suggestions Hello all, I have a rather large array and I need to list it's contents in an alphabetical list. The array is built like this: $array['query']['row']['0']['title'] = 'Bob'; $array['query']['row']['1']['title'] = 'Andy'; $array['query']['row']['2']['title'] = 'Tom'; I need to sort it so it is in alphabetical order based on the title. Is there an easy way to do this? I've tried various sort methods on this array. And seem to be failing. Code: [Select] Array ( [monkey quest] => 8 [monkey] => 2 [monkey sports] => 0 [monkey go happy] => 0 [monkey go happy 3] => 1 [monkey joes] => 0 [monkey games] => 2 [monkey bread recipe] => 1 [monkey go happy 2] => 3 [monkey quest trailer] => 4 [monkey quest guide] => 5 [monkey quest nick] => 6 ) What I want to do or attempt to do rather is sort the array by the => value from highest to lowest (or maybe in reverse as well, but one thing at a time) My last failed attempt I was trying out usort() as my concept.. Code: [Select] function cmp($a, $b) { if ($a == $b) { return 0; } return ($a < $b) ? -1 : 1; } echo "<pre>"; print_r(usort($kw, "cmp")); echo "</pre>"; But the only thing I am left with on the page is just 1 everything else seems to be getting lost, or I dunno whats going on. So I think I've done stumped my self. Now I'm looking for idea's assuming I am tackling this all wrong. Hi,

I want to sort the results by distance, displaying the id's... im looking at ksort() as the solution, however i don't think im implementing it properly as i dont think i have set the array up properly!! what i have is not good...

Here is an example of the array: Code: [Select] $productArray = array ( array ("Bus", "1/1/2010", 15.99), array ("Train", "2/1/2010", 14.99), array ("Car", "3/1/2010", 18.00), array ("Plane", "3/1/2010", 15.99), array ("Bike", "3/1/2010", 9.99), array ("Truck", "1/1/2010", 19.99) ); //sort by date function sortElement1Asc($x, $y) { if ( $x[1] == $y[1] ) return 0; else if ( $x[1] < $y[1] ) return -1; else return 1; } //sort by price function sortElement2Asc($x, $y) { if ( strtotime($x[2]) == strtotime($y[2]) ) return 0; else if ( strtotime($x[2]) < strtotime($y[2]) ) return -1; else return 1; } usort($productArray, 'sortElement1Asc'); usort($productArray, 'sortElement2Asc'); Unfortunately this is just sorting by price (or whatever i sort last). Any ideas? Hi guys, I'm just working on a script to get menu items from a database, sorted by a sort column. Each item needs to be checked to see if it has a parent, then paired with the parent. Would it be best to get all of the items at once and pair them with PHP, or get the children of each item when as a separate array? id label link parent sort 1 Home index.php 0 10 2 About about.php 0 20 3 Contact Us contact.php 2 10 I have an array I want to define in Php and then sort it. I am pretty new to Php and don't know the syntax or what funcs to use. Here's the array I want: user_email, user_name, hours_worked_per_week, total_earned There will be about 120 users, and I want to sort them ascending alphabetically on user_email I am running a script to retrieve numerical value from a webpage, the script echoes the numbers. However I need to add all the numbers to an array or txt file and then have them sorted from highest value to lowest value. Any hints or tips to how I would achieve this? |
