10个不常见却非常有用的PHP函数(2)

$items = array(

“100 apples”, “5 apples”, “110 apples”, “55 apples”

);

// normal sorting:

sort($items);

print_r($items);

# Outputs:

# Array

# (

# [0] => 100 apples

# [1] => 110 apples

# [2] => 5 apples

# [3] => 55 apples

# )

natsort($items);

print_r($items);

# Outputs:

# Array

# (

# [2] => 5 apples

# [3] => 55 apples

# [0] => 100 apples

# [1] => 110 apples

# )

9. levenshtein()函数

Levenshtein()告诉你两个单词之间的“距离”。它告诉你如果想把一个单词变成另一个单词，需要插入、替换和删除多少字母。

看个例子吧：

$dictionary = array(

“php”, “javascript”, “css”

);

$word = “japhp”;

$best_match = $dictionary[0];

$match_value = levenshtein($dictionary[0], $word);

foreach($dictionary as $w) {

$value = levenshtein($word, $w);

if( $value < $match_value ) {

$best_match = $w;

$match_value = $value;

}

}

echo “Did you mean the ‘$best_match’ category?”;

10. glob()函数

glob()会让你觉得用opendir(), readdir()和closedir()来寻找文件非常蠢。

foreach (glob(“*.php”) as $file)

echo “$file\n”;
