Sorting...

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I have an array filled with CSV data...

array (
         20040310, Title, Author
         20041115, Title, Author
         20040513, Title, Author
      )

where each array element is 1 line from the csv. When I go to print it
out, Im going to explode each by , and then print it out the way I like.

BUT, I want to sort them all by those first 8 digits, which happen to be
the date. Any way to sort an array by the first x characters in its
string?

This would save a lot on processor time, otherwise Im going to have to
pull an array of those characters, sort it, and then run some matching
scheme against the CSV data to print it in the order I like - which would
be HUGELY processor intensive.

Thanks,

Russ
