Description

This function sorts an array in reverse order (highest to lowest).

Returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

Example 1. rsort() example

<?php
$fruits
= array("lemon", "orange", "banana", "apple");
rsort($fruits);
reset($fruits);
while (list(
$key, $val) = each($fruits)) {

"$key = $val\n";
