my problem here is how can I code the sorted array
example is this

my problem starts here:

I input the numbers 10 20 30 40 54 8 0 1
the ascending order is: 0 1 8 10 20 30 40 54
the descending order is: 54 40 30 20 10 8 1 0

there are ksort(),asort,usort(),etc functions available in php,u do not have to manually sort an array
