Sort () Definition and usage
The sort () function sorts the values of a given array in ascending order.
Note: This function assigns a new key name to the cell in the array. The original key name is deleted.
If the call succeeds, TRUE is returned. Otherwise, FALSE is returned.
Syntax
Sort (array, sorttype) parameter description

Sorttype is optional. Specifies how to arrange the values of an array. Possible values:
SORT_REGULAR-default. Process with their original type (without changing the type ).
SORT_NUMERIC-process the value as a number
SORT_STRING-process the value as a string
SORT_LOCALE_STRING-process the value as a string based on local settings *.
*: This value is newly added to PHP 4.4.0 and 5.0.2. Before PHP 6, you can use setlocale () to change the region settings of the system. From PHP 6, you must use the i18n_loc_set_default () function.
