PHP re-order array of month names(associative array)

Question

I am trying to reorder an associative array which has label value pairs.I am getting the label data aligned in alphabetical order.but i need the array to be ordered in the form of array of months. My input looks like this:

Array
(
    [0] => Array
        (
            [label] => August
            [value] => 100.55
        )

    [1] => Array
        (
            [label] => November
            [value] => 100.24
        )

    [2] => Array
        (
            [label] => October
            [value] => 99.19
        )

    [3] => Array
        (
            [label] => September
            [value] => 100.11
        )

)

output: In the output array i need the arrays to be ordered as August,September,October,November.Any suggestions please

You can use array_shift(). Please check the answer on this link stackoverflow.com/questions/15936309/… — Rasko

Let suppose your array is $original_array.Then use this code <?php $months=array('January','February','March','April','May','June','July','August','September','October','November','December'); $result=array(); foreach($original_array as $key=>$val){ if($key=array_search($val['label'], $months)){ $result[$key]=array('label'=>$val['label'],'value'=>$val['value']); } } ksort($result); print_r($result); ?> — Confused

NO, I will not reopen this question. And yes, it is a duplicate. OP shows no effort in researching the task, so the dupe is a point to start with. — u_mulder

Make order array and then sort by usort functon

$seq = array_flip([ 'August', 'September', 'October',  'November' ]);

usort($arr, function ($i1, $i2) use($seq) { return $seq[$i1['label']] - $seq[$i2['label']]; });
