This is exactly the type of 'your own' sort function that I had in mind, except that you will need to ensure that the sort is a numeric sort and not a text/ascii character sort

Hello,<br />
<br />
I want a sort on keys of a associative array. the keys are like 5, 10, 20, 30<br />
<br />
I want to show them and the value associated to these keys, but in the ordinal order.<br />
but my sort show: 10 20 30 5<br />
<br />
because 1 2 3 5, it sorts this like string, but i want it sorted numericaly!<br />
<br />
look at my code:<br />
<br />
--------------------------<wbr />----------<wbr />--------<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;my &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;%liste_sequences = ();<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; while( $db-&gt;FetchRow() ) {<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp; %hash = $db-&gt;DataHash;<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;$liste_sequences{$hash{ord<wbr />re_afficha<wbr />ge}} = $hash{sequence};<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;}<br />
<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;$compteur = 10;<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;foreach $ordre_aff (sort(keys(%liste_sequence<wbr />s))) {<br />
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;print &quot;--&gt; $ordre_aff &lt;br&gt;&quot;;<br />

Perl Sort on associative arrays

Perl is a high-level, general-purpose, interpreted, dynamic programming languages with over 25 years of development. Perl 5 runs on over 100 platforms from portables to mainframes and is suitable for both rapid prototyping and large-scale development projects.  Perl gained widespread popularity as a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) scripting language, in part due to its regular expression and string parsing abilities. In addition to CGI, Perl is used for graphics programming, system administration, network programming, finance, bioinformatics, and other applications.
