rsort

(PHP 4, PHP 5, PHP 7, PHP 8)

rsortOrdena um array em ordem descrescente

Descrição

rsort(array &$array, int $flags = SORT_REGULAR): true

Ordena array pelos valores em ordem descrescente.

Nota:

Se dois elementos são comparados como iguais, eles mantêm sua ordem original. Antes do PHP 8.0.0, sua ordem relativa no array ordenado era indefinida.

Nota: Esta função atribui novas chaves aos elementos do array. Ela removerá todas as chaves existentes que possam ter sido atribuídas, em vez de apenas reordenar as chaves.

Nota:

Redefine o ponteiro interno do array para o primeiro elemento.

Parâmetros

array

O array de entrada.

flags

O segundo parâmetro opcional flags pode ser usado para modificar o comportamento da ordenação usando estes valores:

Flags dos tipos de ordenação:

Valor Retornado

Sempre retorna true.

Registro de Alterações

Versão Descrição
8.2.0 O tipo do retorno agora é true; anteriormente, era bool.

Exemplos

Exemplo #1 Exemplo de rsort()

<?php
$frutas
= array ("limão", "laranja", "banana", "maçã");
rsort ($frutas);
foreach(
$frutas as $chave => $valor ){
echo
"$chave = $valor\n";
}
?>

O exemplo acima produzirá:

0 = maçã
1 = limão
2 = laranja
3 = banana

As frutas foram ordenadas em ordem alfabética decrescente.

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.

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 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.

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");

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.

If you are sorting an array from a database result set, such as MySQL for example, another approach could be to have your database sort the result set by using ORDER BY DESC, which would be the equivalent of using rsort() on the resulting array in PHP.
