PHP: Exercise-49 with Solution

Write a PHP program which solve the equation:
ax+by=c
dx+ey=f
Print the values of x, y where a, b, c, d, e and f are given.

Input:
a,b,c,d,e,f separated by a single space.
(-1,000 ≤ a,b,c,d,e,f ≤ 1,000)

Sample Solution: -

PHP Code:

<?php
  function to_f($e) {
    return (float)$e;
  } 
  while($line = fgets(STDIN)) {
    $a = explode(" ", $line);
    $a = array_map("to_f", $a);
    $x = ($a[2]*$a[4]-$a[1]*$a[5])/($a[0]*$a[4]-$a[3]*$a[1]);
    $y = ($a[2]*$a[3]-$a[0]*$a[5])/($a[1]*$a[3]-$a[0]*$a[4]);
    print("Values of x and y:\n");
    printf("%.3f %.3f\n", $x, $y);
  }
?>

Sample Output:

Values of x and y:
-1.684 2.737

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
