algorithm for sorting string number in php

Question

I want to write a program that take string numeric as input(eg,one,two,three etc) and output will be sorted by ascending order or descending order of that string and show it in string as given in input.

Example:

Input:five,two,seven,ten,four

Output:two,four,five,seven,ten

If you want to write it, just start writing. What's the trouble? Conversion of spelling into number? Sorting structures? Printing saved spelling? — Alexander Anikin, May 15 '18 at 08:53
but the string value (one ,two ,three etc) will come from database — Arbab Khan, May 15 '18 at 09:04
Please specify programming language, DB library, DB type and version, input and output spec. — Alexander Anikin, May 15 '18 at 09:24

Interesting problem... You could use that Package: Numbers_Words It has til now only the function "toWords", but should easily be extended with toNumbers. Just downloaded it an looked into the code, don't look to complicated.

in this case for PHP, but I'm sure you can use the data in any language with little changes – PanicMan May 15 '18 at 13:37
What i can see it converts number to words but does it converts word to numbers – Arbab Khan May 16 '18 at 12:05
