The uksort() function is a built-in function in PHP and is used to sort an array according to the keys and not values using a user-defined comparison function.

Parameter: This function accepts two parameters and are described below:

1. $array: This parameter specifies an array which we need to sort.
2. myFunction: This parameter specifies name of a user-defined function which will be used to sort the keys of array $array. This comparison function must return an integer.

Return value: This function returns a boolean value. It returns TRUE on success or FALSE on failure.

Below programs illustrate the uksort() function in PHP:

Program 1:

    [60] => vbscript
    [40] => jsp
    [20] => php
    [10] => javascript
)
