How does PHP order an array? Are numbers > letters or vice versa?

[pplers]

In an array, what's "bigger" ??

"aaaa1111" or "aaaa" or "1111" or "1111aaaa" OR 'aaaa1111' or 'aaaa' or '1111' or '1111aaaa'

Because i want to order an array, for example $arr = array('4wf', 'wf7u', '2345', '342gf', 'zzzzzzzzz', 'a', '999999999999', '1');
The biggest value here is '999999999999' ???

So, PHP orders NUMBERS first and then LETTERS ???

Changed thread title to better describe the problem.

Try using sort and see what happens.

Alternatively, you could use usort to specify your own comparison function.

You could use usort along with one of the strcmp...() functions to choose which way you want things sorted.
