There are different ways to sort a multidimensional array based on the value in an array, depending on the programming language and specific requirements. Here is a general approach:
usort
in PHP or sort
in JavaScript.function compareRows($a, $b) {
$key = 0; // index or key of the column to sort by
if ($a[$key] == $b[$key]) {
return 0;
}
return ($a[$key] < $b[$key]) ? -1 : 1;
}
usort($multidimensional_array, 'compareRows');
This will sort the multidimensional array in place based on the value in the specified column. If you want to sort by multiple columns, you can add more comparisons to the function and change the return values accordingly.
