What is the impact of German sorting on PHP scripts and how can it be addressed?

German sorting in PHP scripts can lead to unexpected results due to the different character encoding used in German language. To address this issue, you can use the `locale` function in PHP to set the appropriate locale for German sorting. 

setlocale(LC_COLLATE, 'de_DE.utf8');
$array = ['ä', 'z', 'ö', 'a', 'ü'];
usort($array, 'strcoll');
print_r($array);
