I have the following array:
Array
(
[Address Line 1] => Array
(
[llx] => 18.96
[lly] => 28.88999999999999
)
[Address Line 2] => Array
(
[llx] => 18.73
[lly] => 35.66
)
[City State ZIP Code] => Array
(
[llx] => 18.51
[lly] => 47.16999999999999
)
[Full Name] => Array
(
[llx] => 18.86
[lly] => 20.15999999999997
)
)
and I would like to loop through it and sort it by the lly
value: so the final outcome should really be
Array
(
[Full Name] => Array
(
[llx] => 18.86
[lly] => 20.15999999999997
)
[Address Line 1] => Array
(
[llx] => 18.96
[lly] => 28.88999999999999
)
[Address Line 2] => Array
(
[llx] => 18.73
[lly] => 35.66
)
[City State ZIP Code] => Array
(
[llx] => 18.51
[lly] => 47.16999999999999
)
)
I've been looking over the sorting functions in PHP, but they seem to be mainly focused on single dimension arrayS and nothing like this unless I'm missing something.
Rudie provided an answer, but it is provably incorrect. Here's a solution using array_multisort
.
$llx = array();
$lly = array();
foreach ($array as $key => $row) {
$llx[$key] = $row['llx'];
$lly[$key] = $row['lly'];
};
array_multisort($lly, SORT_ASC, $llx, $array);
