How do I reverse sort the members of an array?

If you wish to reverse sort the members of an array by their values, then you need to use rsort, for reverse sort, instead of sort.

Again this takes the name of the array as its parameter and here's a little example for you:


<?php

$myworld = array("it","better","make","you");

rsort($myworld);

print_r($myworld);

?>

printing to the screen:

Array
(
[0] => you
[1] => make
[2] => it
[3] => better
)
