@array = ("462","903","824");
print(reverse(sort @array));

'
outputs
903824462

As for the date, you could use the localtime() feature, which outputs the date in a 9-number variable. Then you could just sort() the array of dates to display least to greatest.

As for the date thing, try using numbers for your dates :

"yymmdd" format will organize your dates by newest to oldest.

Cheers!

You could do that by first sorting the array.
Get the last value of the array by using $i = $#array.
Next use a loop to print out each item starting with the last, decrementing $i each time you do it. Oh hell, like this, haha :

@array = ("223", "479", "145", "906", 400");
@array = sort(@array);
$i = $#array; #gets the last item number in the array
$z = 0; #first item in the array
while ($i >= $z) {
print "$array[$i]\n";
$i--;
}

finit
should do the trick for ya.
