PHP Exercises: Get the absolute difference between n and 51

PHP Basic Algorithm: Exercise-2 with Solution

Write a PHP program to get the absolute difference between n and 51. If n is greater than 51 return triple the absolute difference.

Sample Solution:

PHP Code :

<?php
function test($n) 
{
     $x = 51;

     if ($n > $x)
     {
       return ($n - $x)*3;
     }
   return $x - $n;
}
echo test(53)."\n";
echo test(30)."\n";
echo test(51)."\n";  

Sample Output:

6
21
0

PHP: Tips of the Day

How to Sort Multi-dimensional Array by Value?

Try a usort, If you are still on PHP 5.2 or earlier, you'll have to define a sorting function first:

Example:

function sortByOrder($a, $b) {
    return $a['order'] - $b['order'];
}

usort($myArray, 'sortByOrder');

Starting in PHP 5.3, you can use an anonymous function:

usort($myArray, function($a, $b) {
    return $a['order'] - $b['order'];
});

And finally with PHP 7 you can use the spaceship operator:

usort($myArray, function($a, $b) {
    return $a['order'] <=> $b['order'];
});

To extend this to multi-dimensional sorting, reference the second/third sorting elements if the first is zero - best explained below. You can also use this for sorting on sub-elements.

usort($myArray, function($a, $b) {
    $retval = $a['order'] <=> $b['order'];
    if ($retval == 0) {
        $retval = $a['suborder'] <=> $b['suborder'];
        if ($retval == 0) {
            $retval = $a['details']['subsuborder'] <=> $b['details']['subsuborder'];
        }
    }
    return $retval;
});

If you need to retain key associations, use uasort() - see comparison of array sorting functions in the manual
