The following table summarizes the technical details of this function.

Return Value: Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.
Version: PHP 4+

Syntax

The basic syntax of the asort() function is given with:

asort(array, sort_flags);

The following example shows the asort() function in action.

<?php
// Sample array
$alphabets = array("b"=>"ball", "d"=>"dog", "a"=>"apple", "c"=>"cat");

// Sorting alphabets array
asort($alphabets);
print_r($alphabets);
?>
