Loading Contents of a File -> Sorting everything?

[Harlequin]

You guys have helped me countless times before.. and yet again, I come to you for a little kick in the right direction.

Let's say we have a text file with the following:

(in the order of: name id, name title, number people with name, name description)

01        Name #1        4        This name is number one.
02        Name #2        8        This name is number two.
03        Name #3        0        This name is number three.
04        Name #4        3        This name is number four.

Now keep in mind I already have a for() outputting this file fine and I'm exploding the \t's.. as the large spaces are tabs if you haven't already guessed. Within the for(), I'm able to use $value[1], $value[2], $value[3], $value[4].. to display where ever I want, granted.

But now here comes the question.

How can I have PHP load this file and sort the "number of people with this name" in a descending order, having everything else associated with the number of people. Example wanted output below:


Name #2 has 8 people in it. It's description is "This name is number two."
Name #1 has 4 people in it. It's description is "This name is number one."
Name #4 has 3 people in it. It's description is "This name is number four."
Name #3 has 0 people in it. It's description is "This name is number three."


Any ideas?
