The Ds\Sequence::sort() function is an inbuilt function in PHP that is used to sort the sequence element in the same place. 

Syntax:

Return value: This function does not return any values. Below programs illustrate the Ds\Sequence::sort() function in PHP: 

Program 1: 

php




<?php
  
// Create new sequence
$seq new \Ds\Vector([2, 4, 1, 9, 6, 5, 12, 9]);
 
// Use sort() function to sort
// the sequence element
$seq->sort();
 
print_r($seq);
 
?>


Output:

Ds\Vector Object
(
    [0] => 1
    [1] => 2

$seq new \Ds\Vector([2, 4, 1, 9, 6, 5, 12, 9]);
 
// Use sort() function to sort
// the sequence element
$seq->sort(function($x, $y) {
    return $y <=> $x;
});
 
print_r($seq);
 
?>


Output:

Ds\Vector Object
(
    [0] => 12
    [1] => 9
