ksort($freq) sorts the array by the key. And that works fine.
But I would also like to sort by value to see which words
are more frequent.
There is no |ascending/descending option to ksort?|
ksort sorts by key, if you want by value, look at sort.
As to asc/desc sort, they just have a different name. ksort
and sort
are asc, krsort and rsort are desc equivalents.

I'm fuzzy when it comes to arrays. I never get what I want right.
Sort does not work seamlessly. I have my key and
sort($freq);
print_r ($freq);
looks like:
Array
(
...
[1000] => 172
[1001] => 176
[1002] => 179
[1003] => 441
)
This is what I want:
Array
(
...
[and] => 172
[of] => 176
[to] => 179
[the] => 441
)
I'm beginning to think I should plug this into a MySQL table, where I
would be at home.
But right now, I'll be stubborn and go read
http://php.net/manual/en/array.sorting.php.
Merci Serge,
John
