[Resolved] asort.....

[murali]

I have the following array

$GLOBALS['raj'][0]=array('raaz',4);
$GLOBALS['raj'][1]=array('arzu',1);
$GLOBALS['raj'][2]=array('Ind',10);
$GLOBALS['raj'][3]=array('Hin',9);

the result I need is
Ind 10
Hin 9
raaz 4
arzu 1

I tried using

asort($GLOBALS['raj']);
reset($GLOBALS['raj']);

But still the array is not sorted..

think I am missing something here...
??

$GLOBALS['raj'][0]=array('raaz',4);
$GLOBALS['raj'][1]=array('arzu',1);
$GLOBALS['raj'][2]=array('Ind',10);
$GLOBALS['raj'][3]=array('Hin',9);

$transp=transpose_array($GLOBALS['raj']);
array_multisort($transp[1],  SORT_NUMERIC, SORT_DESC,$transp[0]);
$GLOBALS['raj']=transpose_array($transp);

function transpose_array($arr)
{
	if(!is_array($arr)) return FALSE;
	for($x=0,$z=0;$x<count($arr);$x++)
	{
		for($r=0,$y=0;$r<count($arr[$x]);$r++)
		{
			$narr[$y][$z]=$arr[$x][$r];
			$y++;
		}
		$z++;
	}
	return $narr;
}

[man]usort[/man] is handly in situations like this:

<?php

$GLOBALS['raj'][0]=array('raaz',4); 
$GLOBALS['raj'][1]=array('arzu',1); 
$GLOBALS['raj'][2]=array('Ind',10); 
$GLOBALS['raj'][3]=array('Hin',9);

function sort_by_score($left, $right) {

if ($left[1]==$right[1]) {
	return;
} else {
	return($right[1]-$left[1]);
}
}

usort($GLOBALS['raj'], "sort_by_score");
print_r($GLOBALS['raj']);

?>
