How can I rearrange the digits of a number?

[memongo23]

I'm trying to take a 3 digit number and rearrange the numbers for least to greatest.
For example, I want to take '492' and turn it into '249'.
I'd appreciate any help.

Try the following code. I'm sure it's not the only way of doing it but it does work. Hope it helps?

<?php

$numbers = "492";

$number1 = substr($numbers,0,1);
$number2 = substr($numbers,1,1);
$number3 = substr($numbers,2,1);

$number_array = array ("$number1", "$number2", "$number3");

sort($number_array);

$numbers_formatted = implode("", $number_array);

print "Numbers were: $numbers<br>";
print "Numbers are now: $numbers_formatted";

?>
