Players with more blocks placed

So, in my plugin, every time a player is in the block on the floor, I add +1 to their respective place in the configuration, see:

Code:

 ---
Steve: 431.
Alex: 125
Mia: 654
Vicent: 334
... 

I wanted to have three of those who put a majority of the blocks, but I can not think of any method that I can do this.
Any help is welcome, thank you.[/Code]

 

If your question is finding the top three of all of them..
Use arsort()

PHP:

//class extending PluginBase
$path = $this->getDataFolder()."config.yml";
$array = yaml_parse_file($path);
arsort($array);
$players = array_keys($array);
/**
* If you just want the top 3 player names,
* you can end here.
* Top 3:
* * $players[0]
* * $players[1]
* * $players[2]
*
* Their scores:
* * $array[$players[0]]
* * $array[$players[1]]
* * $array[$players[2]]
*/

$top3 = [];
for($i = 0; $i < 3; ++$i){
    $top3[$players[$i]] = $array[$players[$i]];
}
/**
$top3 = [
    "Mia" => 654,
    "Steve" => 431,
    "Vicent" => 334
];
*/


 

do you have evidence of previous attempts?

 

No

 

Thanks
