Basic Usage
-----------

[](#basic-usage)

Let's assume a scenario where we have a huge array like the one below and we need to sort it by a value contained in the array:

```
$student = array(
	array(
		'name' => array(
			'first_name' => 'Joann',
			'last_name' => 'Daly'
        	),
		'age' => 18,
		'grade' => 12,
		'birth_month' => 5
    	),
	array(
		'name' => array(
			'first_name' => 'Jaiden',
			'last_name' => 'Wolf'
		),
		'age' => 15,
		'grade' => 10,
		'birth_month' => 8
	),
	array(
		'name' => array(
			'first_name' => 'Lara',
			'last_name' => 'Flores'
		),
		'age' => 8,
		'grade' => 3,
		'birth_month' => 2
	)
);
```

- In case it's sort by 'age'

```
use TheOpenEyes\SortAssociativeArray\SortAssociativeArray;

SortAssociativeArray::column($student, 'age', SORT_DESC);

/* Parameters of 'column' method
    1. Array - The array you would like to sort by.
    2. Column name
    3. Sort Direction - Should be either SORT_ASC or SORT_DESC (Optional, Default is SORT_ASC)
*/
```

- In case it's sort by 'first\_name'

```
use TheOpenEyes\SortAssociativeArray\SortAssociativeArray;

SortAssociativeArray::columnWithChild($student, 'name', 'first_name', SORT_DESC);

/* Parameters of 'columnWithChild' method
    1. Array - The array you would like to sort by.
    2. Parent column name
    3. Child column name
    4. Sort Direction - Should be either SORT_ASC or SORT_DESC (Optional, Default is SORT_ASC)
*/
```
