Hi there,

I am outputing a list of 10 values.

10, 20, 30, 40, etc

I can add 15 to one of the values then reorder the values from smallest
to highest but i want to update every single value and assign it values
increamenting by 10

so after the update the second number of 20 and add 15 I get

10, 30, 35, 40

now i want to re output the values above as

10, 20, 30, 40

But this last is just the same as the original. I don't see the
difference... Was this supposed to be 10, 30, 20, 40 ?

It would help if you could explain in detail what you are trying to achieve
with this, but basicly that would go like this:
$foo = range(10,100,10);// create the list of numbers
$bar = $foo;
$foo[rand()%sizeof($foo)]+=15;// add 15 to random element.
asort($foo); // Sort the changed array

// Print the sorted changed order using the
// original values that were copied to $bar
foreach($foo as $k => $v)
echo $bar[$k] . ', ';

Hui Kimmo,

sorry for the confusion, once i have added 15 to one of the numbers and
it has been sorted from lowest to highest it will look like this.

10, 30, 35, 40

assuming that i added 15 to 20 giving me 35.

now take that list 10, 30, 35, 40 and give them all new values 10, 20,
30, 40

so a break down of before and after

10 = 10
30 = 20
35 = 30
40 = 40

i hope this helps

thanks



(Top posting fixed)

I'm with Kimmo on this. These are just numbers - and what you're trying doesn't make sense. You're just changeling one number, reordering the series then putting the original numbers back. You get exactly the same result with a lot less work by just echoing the original list.

Can you tell us what you're *really* trying to do? Maybe that will help us understand your question.

P.S. Please don't top post. Thanks.
