If you are using Laravel, which your tag suggests, you can use collections to manipulate arrays like this. For example:

$array = collect($array)->sortBy('count')->reverse()->toArray();

Or

Using array_multisort()

$array = array(   
   46 => 
      array (
       'name' => 'HSR Layout',
       'url' => 'hsr-layout',
       'count' => 2,
      ),

   37 => 
      array (
       'name' => 'Electronic City',
       'url' => 'electronic-city',
       'count' => 3,
      )
  );

$price = array();
foreach ($array as $key => $row)
{
    $count[$key] = $row['count'];
}
array_multisort($count, SORT_DESC, $array);

print_r($array);

$array = collect($array)->sortBy('count')->reverse()->toArray(); it gives me same array without sorting. — Mizan Rifat, Aug 27 '19 at 12:15

You can do it with simple php-function usort.

But also with laravel's collection:

collect($point_table)->sortBy('points');

collect($point_table)->sortBy('points'); this returns same array without sorting.can you tell me how to use usort in this case – Mizan Rifat Aug 27 '19 at 12:05
Really? That's strange. Can you show your code? My code above will return you new collection with new sorted array. For convert it to array you must use `->toArray()` as @sss-s said. With `usort` it can be like: `usort($point_table, function($a, $b) { if ($a['points'] == $b['points']) return 0; return ($a['points'] > $b['points']) ? -1 : 1; });`. After that, your $point_table will be contained with new sorted array. – Grabatui Aug 27 '19 at 12:18
