I am trying to order category by acf field value. How can I achieve this using acf filed value?

    $categories = get_categories('taxonomy=toc_category');
    $sorted_cats = array();
    foreach($categories as $cat){
        $ordr = get_field('order', 'toc_category' . '_' . $cat->term_id);
        $sorted_cats[$ordr] = $cat;

        echo '<pre>';
        print_r($cat);
        echo $cat->name; // it not returns expexted output
    }
    krsort($sorted_cats);
    return $sorted_cats;

Use this code.

$categories = get_terms('toc_category');
$sorted_cats = array();
foreach($categories as $cat){
    $ordr = get_field('order', 'toc_category_'.$cat->term_id);
    $sorted_cats[$ordr] = $cat->name;
}
krsort($sorted_cats);
return $sorted_cats;
