$db->exec("INSERT INTO test VALUES ('a1')");
$db->exec("INSERT INTO test VALUES ('a10')");
$db->exec("INSERT INTO test VALUES ('a2')");

$db->sqliteCreateCollation('NATURAL_CMP', 'strnatcmp');
foreach ($db->query("SELECT col1 FROM test ORDER BY col1") as $row) {
  echo $row['col1'] . "\n";
}
echo "\n";
