Note that sort   operates on the array in place  so you only need to call  sort  a   doSomething  a     This will not work    a   sort  a   doSomething  a

If you just want to sort the array values and don t care for the keys  use sort    This will give a new array with numeric keys starting from 0  If you want to keep the key-value associations  use asort      See also the comparison table of sorting functions in PHP
